The bead featured in this necklace came from mamacitabeadworks.etsy.com. It is made from hand cast pewter. With age the pewter pendant will take on a rich, oxidized patina. All that is needed to polish it is a polishing cloth like you would use for a sterling silver piece.
The necklace itself is made from stainless steel rings in a Full Persian weave. I used 18 gauge 1/4 inch rings to make this piece. It is 22 inches long and closes with a handmade hook clasp that is also made from stainless steel.
