Bathing Beauty In Cabana Necklace

Description

Can you guess what famous beach my Bathing Beauty Necklace is being modeled at in the photo on the right?

Read on to find out...

Hiding inside the colorful striped cabana in this necklace is a vintage bathing beauty wearing an adorable 'swim costume'.

Pull gently on the silver filagree knob on the side of the pendant and the bathing beauty appears! Push the knob and she goes back inside the cabana! Yes, she really moves!

This whimsical necklace starts out life as a tiny hand built shadowbox.

The cabana beach scene is then carefully (and painstakingly!) created inside.

Next it is delicatley sandwiched between two panes of hand cut glass.

Finally it is soldered in this beautiful scallop pattern using sterling silver solder.

The back of this unique pendant features a vintage Coney Island postcard.

One of my customers recently had this to say about her Bathing Beauty Necklace:

"OH MY GOSH! It's like being hounded by the Paparazzi when I wear this, I can't get anyone to leave me alone...do it again...show her...how does that work again....Thank you so much I love it!" (You can read this comment and more from my happy customers in the 'feedback' section of my shop.)

WARNING: If you are shy this might not be the necklace for you!

P.S.
Did you guess what beach was in the photo?

It is Waikiki Beach in Hawaii. (The bathing beauty modeling the necklace is my own adorable daughter.)

Necklace Approx.Dimensions:1 1/2 inches tall,1 inch across, 3/8 inch deep.
