It takes a special kind of woman to look at a piece of hardware and see past what it is, what it's for, to the beauty of what it could be. That same type of woman is able to see past another person's rough exterior and see the gentle nature of their soul, to love them despite obvious flaws, to appreciate the not always obvious qualities of their character. This line of necklaces was created for that woman.

While shopping at my local antique store, I found two vintage, solid brass drawer pulls. I purchased them both and created two one of kind necklaces. This is one of them. The hardware itself measures 2 3/4 inches (70mm), or about the length of your ring finger. It has been left as I found it. I left the front of the piece untreated, so it will continue to age and patina over time. I treated the back of the piece with Renaissance Wax to protect the wearer's skin and clothing. The pull has been embellished with three peach colored Cubic Zirconia marquis stones, two Crystal Copper Swarovski flat backs, and two tiny clear acrylic crystals. I have added a Light Topaz AB Swarovski crystal bicone that dangles from the bottom of the focal. I also added three solid oxidized brass filigrees to the front of the piece. The solid brass chain, which is finished in Antique Gold, measures 18 inches and closes with an antique brass colored lobster clasp.

NOTE: I always test run my necklaces to make sure there are no flaws and that everything is sturdy. When I wore this one, I noticed that the pendant kept flipping with the chain being attached where it was. I moved the chain in about a half an inch on each side (which differs from the photos) and the problem was solved!

This is ONE OF A KIND piece. Once it has been sold, there will never be another one created. It cannot be duplicated.
