{"url":"https://folksy.pro/items/8201279--locket-pendant-giant-limpet-shell","title":" Locket Pendant Giant Limpet Shell","price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","provider_name":"Folksy","description":"A really big limpet shell made into a pendant with a locket opening at the back. The pendant is mostly in shades of white and cream with a little silver and subtle rainbow colours. The shell has been polished to a pearly finish and there are faint shades of blue and pink in it.The pendant is created by stitching rows of beads around the shell to fix it to a backing fabric. A layer of thin copper is added before the fine, white leather backing, to support the locket, which is made by cutting the back off a little, heart shaped tin I found. This is stitched to the piece with fine copper wire. A layer of the white leather is glued to the lid of the tin,\r\nOnce all the layers are in place another row of beads are stitched around to conceal the raw edges. Little, white, vintage seed beads are added to create a delicate edging. \r\nMost of the beads in this piece are vintage, the large, first row are nearly all mother of pearl beads from a deconstructed necklace, there weren't quite enough of the right size so there are 3 bone beads included to complete the row.\r\nMore of the white vintage beads create 6 loops at the top of the pendant to hang it from several strands of seed beads. I bought these strands as a belt and converted it to make the necklace for this dramatic pendant. Fastened with a loop and vintage mother of pearl button. \r\nPendant measure 8cm top to bottom necklace approx 51 cm long and has a long strand of the beads beyond the button.\r\n","brand":"vintage beadery","product_id":8201279,"availability":"in stock","quantity":1,"product_expiration":"2026-04-10T16:21:41+00:00","images":["https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-b57ff574-e6f1-42d7-aa25-7f9c1aa79755-giant-limpet-shell-locket-pendant-vintage-beadery/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-9243163f-0319-4b8a-9acf-b346e969443f-giant-limpet-shell-locket-pendant-vintage-beadery/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-0c950ab1-d57e-436b-9b23-a682617414bf-giant-limpet-shell-locket-pendant-vintage-beadery/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-92c4a7e4-be30-469d-a2ac-c01dddcfcacf-giant-limpet-shell-locket-pendant-vintage-beadery/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-0289c4ed-4052-46d9-ba3d-e54a36373e5f-giant-limpet-shell-locket-pendant-vintage-beadery/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-4ec7048f-cb21-4799-9bdd-d0761cf5b760-giant-limpet-shell-locket-pendant-vintage-beadery/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-5fb0c01b-4c48-48c2-9fe9-b400b209578e-locket-pendant-giant-limpet-shell-vintage-beadery/public"]}
