It has been glazed over the entire piece, then fired to over 2200 degrees F in my ceramic kiln, which makes for a durable product. I then etch the glossy surface to reveal this satin matte finish.
If you would like me to create a piece of jewelry for you with this particular pendant, please let me know by message to seller or Etsy convo and I can use my skilled hands to wrap this piece for you with either a non-tarnishing brass or sterling silver wire, similar to what is seen in the last photograph (necklace pendant only. If you want a set, convo me to see if I can make it for you).
The cost for making this piece wearable as in the last photograph (wire wrapped bail and on silky or fairy ribbon):
Add $5 for necklace in a non tarnishing base metal wire.
Add $10 for Sterling Silver (please let me know if you want the silver "bright" or "antiqued").

I would be happy to pick a silk color that goes with the palette of the pendant for you, since I have it with me here in person. Just send me an Etsy convo or message to seller.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my porcelain clay art work…
