My trek into the world of Australian Indie Fashion keeps getting more and more interesting. I keep finding gorgeous pieces on each effort of searching. It’s very fulfilling. This time around is an indie accessory designer, Simone Walsh, wow-ing us with her handmade jewelry.
One of the pieces that stood out in my book is the Picture Frame Pendant.
This beautiful Victorian-inspired picture frame pendant has been intricately cut out by hand from sterling silver.
The centre of the rectangular frame is left empty, allowing your skin or clothing to show through the cut out sections of the pendant. The pendant has a brushed but shiny finish and it has a light weight to it.
The pendant is suspended from a sterling silver chain which has been blackened and then polished to provide a graduated finish, which is both darker than the pendant but also shiny. The chain features handmade findings.
The beauty of handmade items is the fact that you can be assured that it’ll be unique. I want one! If only I’ll be around longer. Sigh.
Picture Frame Pendant, $68.
