Tiny Menacing Monster Pendant - sterling silver

Description

I understand it must be a little hard to believe that these little faces are menacing. They're tiny, shiny, and some of them even smile. But trust me, they're not as cute as they first appear.

They peek out at the world, staring, thinking, plotting....

The real problem? They are perfect reflective domes - making it almost impossible to take decent photographs of them. Like aliens, Yeti and Bigfoot, lots of people see them, but few photographs exist. They're sort of the opposite of vampires, who - according to many legends - can't be seen in mirrors. These little guys ARE mirrors, and reflect everything around them. Particularly the camera, and sometimes even me.

I've tried some photography tips and tricks, but in the end the monsters win, so I've taken a few different angles to try to show the little guy off at his best. The face is shiny silver, on a patinated background: black spots are reflections of the camera, and white blurs are reflections of the white paper I'm using to hide the tripod. Not to mention the shine from lights.

All sterling silver, including the 16" (40.6 cm) dainty chain (although the chain you get may be different than the one pictured). The pendant is about 1/2" in diameter, or 1.27 cm. All the monster's faces are unique. And they're watching you.
