Full description
Inspired by Aesop’s fable, this tortoise and hare necklace is both a wearable piece of jewellery and an objet d’art. Presented in a unique ash-wood display stand, the intricate item can be enjoyed even when it is not being worn.
Each piece of this pendant has been intricately pierced by hand from eco silver, and the tortoise’s shell and hare have been individually textured to bring the characters to life. It hangs on a delicate sterling silver rope chain.
As the pendant is entirely handmade with hand tools, it bears the honesty marks of such craftsmanship and will not have the immaculate finish you would see on an item from a High Street jeweller. This is because mass produced objects are designed to be the same every time and are factory-finished with industrial machines. With this pendant, you are buying something that is truly unique which honours the time and talent that has gone into creating it.
The pendant will be fully gift wrapped in a black corrugated card pillow box with a Designs from the Gatehouse gift tag and the wooden display stand will be included separately in the package.
Dimensions: 2.9cm diameter, 3mm wide, 23cm long chain.
Postage by Royal Mail 2nd class (signed for) is included in the price.
Designed by Lindsay in Kent
