Product Description
So colorful! This little octopus gem has loads of silvered glass, and therefore a ton of different color variation from the body to the tentacles. The bulbous head melts perfectly into the body, which in turn spawns into eight flailing excited tentacles. The colors include amber, orange, red, pinkish, and deep shades of purple. The eyes look up at you as you wear it, and the bail is part of the tentacle (just too fun, right?). This ambery-purple octopus is part of our Sealife Series. :)
Approximate dimensions (L x W x D)
41mm x 37mm x 16mm (1.6in x 1.4in x 0.6in )
For comparison, a US quarter has a width and diameter of 24.26 mm (0.955 in) :)
Care: I use hard glass (borosilicate), and it is quite durable, as glass goes. Water and carpet it can withstand with ease - a tile floor is another story ;) Although this type of glass is at the most durable end of the glass spectrum, it is still glass, so please be careful. It is not intended for small children.
This listing is for the pendant a la carte, as all our pendants have large enough bails(loops) to accommodate a wide variety of cord and chain options for your convenience. For full accessorizing, you can add a leather cord with sterling silver findings custom made by me if you prefer (see shop listing).
Each unique piece of glass art is made in my studio by me and properly annealed in a digitally-controlled kiln for added strength. If you have any questions on a piece please email me and I will reply quickly. I'm Self-Representing Artist # S-88, and stand by my glass art. Thank you for supporting the handmade arts! :)
