Chunky Magazine Paper Upcycled Necklace

$34.00

This upcycled paper pendant necklace is one of a kind and made to order. It has been hand crafted from recycled magazine paper, carefully chosen to display colorful flecked accents in each component. As it is one of a kind, no two pieces are exactly the same but the overall aesthetic will very closely resemble what you see in the photo.  The pendant is recycled and earth friendly, yet it is protected from earth's elements and is super sturdy. It has been hand painted in a sealant which makes it water resistant and UV resistant. It also has an additional outer gloss which provides the piece with a lovely sheen. It is super lightweight and hangs from an antique brass oval style chain.

All jewelry items will arrive in beautifully packaged boxes wrapped with a ribbon and optional gift tag, ready for giving. 

Dimensions:

Pendant approx. 2in x 3in

19 inches total length (16 inches of chain)

 

This is a one of a kind piece which can never be perfectly duplicated.  However, if you would like this piece in alternate colors or different size, please message me. I will be delighted to make you a custom piece!

What is quilling?

Quilling is also known as paper filigree. It is an ancient art form that involves curling, rolling, looping, scrolling and coiling thin strips of paper into various shapes for decorative and artistic purposes.

All of my quilled paper jewelry is what I like to call "rain or shine", as I carefully hand-paint each piece with a sealant that makes it water resistant and UV resistant. This sealant also provides a sturdiness to the paper which makes it just as robust as "regular" jewelry. I do not recommend swimming in or sitting on your quilled paper jewelry :) but it is suitable for everyday wear. As with all precious jewelry, careful storage of your paper jewelry is also advised.
