Mum is literally the word on this beautiful, heart-shaped silver pendant… Handmade from recycled silver, the reversible pendant has ‘mum’ brailled on the front and a leaf-themed texture on the back. Supplied with a small silver heart charm and 45cm trace chain. The silver charm has a sea-themed texture on its reverse.
Each pendant is individually made from silver Metal Clay, which looks and feels much like ordinary sculpting or porcelain clay, but it is made from extremely fine (micron-sized) particles of pure fine silver, mixed with a non-toxic organic binder and water.
Silver Metal Clay can be rolled, textured, coiled, carved and sculpted using innovative techniques that aren’t possible with traditional metalsmithing. Once transformed into a work of art, the creation is dried and refined, then fired to just below the melting point of silver. The binder and water burn away, the silver particles fuse together, and the result is a strong, solid piece of metal, which is then polished.
Please note, due to the handmade making process and shrinkage during firing, the size, weight and style of each item will vary slightly.
When you buy this product, it supports the work we do at RNIB to make every day better for those affected by sight loss.
Please note, this is a bespoke, handmade item and delivery may take two to three weeks.
