Handmade Ceramic Choughs on the beach pendant

This pendant features a pair of choughs, coastal crows with impressive red beaks. To complete the scene I have pressed a waves design into the wet clay, and painted it in shades of blue. As with all my jewellery it is made and decorated entirely by hand. After forming my pendants from fine white clay, I imprint my design. When dry, I sand the back and sides of the pendants and round off the corners to ensure they are super smooth. They then have their first firing. Next I paint them using under-glazes and apply a transparent glaze before firing again to earthenware. Being glazed all over they are smooth against the skin whilst retaining the texture of the imprinted design. The result is a pleasantly tactile item. This is a one-off listing, the pendant in the photographs is the actual one you will receive. The pendant is about 28mm, just over an inch and a half across, and 38mm, an inch and a half long. All my jewellery comes in a hand-stamped box. The chain shown is silver plated and 18" long with a lobster clasp. I can put the pendant onto a different length chain, as listed in the options. If you have any other requirements, such as metal-free, or a different clasp, message me and I'll let you know what I can do. I can also make to order, so if you would like something similar, but a different colour or shape please get in touch. Or even something completely different, and I'll let you know if it's possible!
