Item Description
Artist Moira Richardson uses vintage optical trial lens to create these one-of-a-kind two-sided pendants. (Optical lens are used by eye doctors to determine your prescription.)
Each pendant is meticulously hand-crafted using images, bits of text, and ephemera to create two tiny circular collages, measuring approximately 1.25 inches in diameter. Images are affixed to the glass surface of the lens and protected with a clear, non-yellowing resin.
For your custom pendant, she can use your choice of images and text. Or she can work with your favorite colors and ideas to create a custom piece. It's up to you!
Once the image part of the design is finished, the lens is wire-wrapped to turn it into a pendant. The pendant is added to a chain, usually a silver-plated adjustable length chain, but I can also use vintage brass or copper wire or gold-plated, depending on your preferences.
It’s shipped in a gift box, ready for gifting.
