How it's made:

Our one-of-a-kind textures are created by a metalsmithing process called fusing. Each piece of sterling silver is hand-cut and carefully placed with tweezers onto a sterling silver base. Then with a little magic, a little luck, intense concentration and careful torch control, the piece is heated just before it completely melts. It's at this point that the pieces fuse to the base. This creates a unique look but also provides superior durability and texture to the piece. Then 14K gold is fused randomly to the pendant. The final steps involve traditional metalsmithing techniques of sanding, polishing, drilling, stone setting, and adding a patina to get the desired finish. 

Other information:

Each necklace is made by hand and therefore is one-of-a-kind.  Texture and stone placement may vary slightly from what is shown.
