These pendants in porcelain consists of a composition of several 'Zeeuwse knopjes'(buttons from Zeeland/Sealand). This is an element taken from the jewellery from Dutch folklore, especially from the region of Zeeland. This is the region where I was born and where I grew up. My grandmother still wore the traditional costume. The traditional jewelry and other items typical to the region inspired me to make a series of 'Zeeuwse' items.
I made casts of original 'zeeuws knopjes' and these are used to make replica's in clay or porcelain. I combine several to make the pendant and let it dry. It's subsequently fired, glazed and fired for a second time. For the grey I stained the porcelain before use.
You find the Two Trees logo on the back as a sign of authenticity.
The pendant hangs from a black metal choker with a very sleek way to open and close it; 2 tubes slide over one another.
Size of the pendant is approx 1,5 inches/4cm in diameter, metal cord necklace is 17 5/8 inch/45cm.
WHITE= sold, you will receive the soft grey pendant.
