this is, how it looks, after I turned it into a pendant, so I can wear it (since the needle of the hairpin is missing).
very nice. well done
@Thank you, Ait Ouakli.
Very unusual pendant and very ethnic looking. Am sure that it will raise questions....Lovely intricate work.
@Thanks Akkie, I just made it today (turn it into a pendant), I have not yet worn it, but will certainly do so. I also like this size (2,5 cm, that means small), that is just fine for me....!) I used to wear the bridal pendants (similar, consisting of two pendants and a ring), but I will wear this now alternatively with the bridal pendans).
@Thanks Chantal, I just love this little thing! it is a bit damaged (perhaps someone slept on it...... during the many years of use, and it was squeezed), but that makes it even more authentic. (Happy to see your back!).
@Thank you very much for the feature!
Eva, I do like the way you`ve echoed the circles in the actual piece with the hanger/bale you made>
@Thanks a lot Frankie, how nice this is said ! ("echoed the circles", love the language!)
