medicine man

Description

hello :)
thank you so much for looking at this listing...

a little medicine man or shaman with ancient african trade beads and a natural turquoise stone for healing... the hand cut and shaped silver medicine man is just over 35mm tall, the turquoise nugget is about 15mm at its widest point... the beautiful trade beads were made be the mali tribe over 400 years ago and i've hung them on a silver hoop to represent the continuity of life

all metal used is 925 sterling silver, i have oxidised the silver within this piece as i think the blackened look suits the artefacts i have used but of course i can make a piece like this in plain silver if you prefer

the chain on this piece is about 20.5 inches (52cm) and fastens at the front with a ring and bar

i love to work to commission, please convo me with any ideas you may have, all my pieces will come to you carefully packaged and gorgeously gift wrapped

thank you :)
