Handmade Pendant Necklace, Unique Eco Special Gifts, Sterling Silver, Gift Boxed

Ceramic discovered The River Tees Barnard Castle Co Durham March 2024 Handcrafted into Pendant November 2025 A small patch of ground beside the River Tees gets boggy and drenched during heavy rains. The downpours expose all sorts of broken pot, glass, bits of pipes and wonderful oyster shells. On a March wet day 2024 I came across the bottom part of a pot. The base was slightly raised and had a lovely dark blue pattern on the inside. The material isn't finely finished with a few bumps in the glaze. After a thorough clean I stored and came across it while having a clear out. I really love the dark blue so decided to attempt to shape the piece. I managed to sand gently, creating a round pendant. Set into an open back claw bezel, front glaze still in tact, you can still see the bumps in the ceramic. The idea is to create something new from old, use recycled materials to produce unique jewellery. The finished piece isn't meant to be perfect but instead retain part of the original character, including marks/scratches, all part of the history of the ceramic and materials used. Set in a 20 mm round claw bezel made from 925 Recycled Sterling Silver. Hanging on 18 inch 925 Recycled Sterling Silver chain. Delivered in gift box made from FSC®-certified cardboard and water-based glue. Presented on Jewellery box insert made from tall oil, a by-product of paper production. Sustainable gifts, complete with short bio and gift bag.
