Open Bail Basket Pendant with Shell Bead in Vintage Bronze

This piece was inspired by Kelly Jones, a wonderful artist who posts tutorials online.  While making this pendant, I was reminded of collecting shells in a basket while walking along the shore.  The weave cradles the shell bead and has an open bail, meaning the front and the back of the bail are not tied together but are merely folded over one another.  This creates a more drastic difference between layers and adds more dimension to the piece.

The pendant is made with enameled copper core wire, which means you won't have to worry about tarnishing as time passes.  Please remember that jewelry should not be stored in direct sunlight and should be kept out of water if at all possible. 

Due to the nature of monitors and screens, the color may vary slightly in real life.
