Bronze Joy Heart Necklace

Description

This necklace features a handmade heart made from BronzClay with a false-rivited plaque that says "joy" on it. The heart has my fav lace texture on it. The heart came out of the kiln with some nice greens and pinks. It's rubbed with bees wax to preserve the colors for as long as possible! The rest of the necklace is made with brass, glass and Czech crystal beads and bronze wire.

Measurements:
Necklace measures 18"
Heart measures 30 mm across

Thanks for looking!

Bronze Care:
Do not clean your bronze in a home ultrasonic cleaner or with any chemical cleaners! Use a soft cloth and then, only sparingly. The great thing about BRONZclay is the unique patina each piece comes out of the kiln with. Cleaners and rubbing will take any unique patina off your bronze pieces and may damage any stones or pearls your bronze piece includes. So, the dirtier the better with bronze! Just rub softly with a soft cloth. The more ancient looking, the better!

What is BRONZclay, you might ask?
BRONZclay consists of 11% tin, 89% copper, water and non-toxic binding materials. The binding materials vaporize completely during the kiln-firing process, leaving a solid bronze piece with a density 90% that of cast bronze. BRONZclay is true bronze (although a bit less dense) and is composed of tin and copper, not the brass form that you see in most commercial bronze. (from Rio Grande)
