This item is featured in my book 'Wire Jewellery Masterlass'
I have captured a beautiful piece of Paua shell (also known as Abalone) in a frame of swirling silver wire, reminiscent of the foaming sea waves. The swirls of wire, interspersed with silver beads, skim the edge of the shell, holding it securely in place.
The pendant is 3' tall including the woven bail and 1 3/4' wide and the chain is 24' long.
