Pretty Purple Butterflies Dichroic Glass Pendant
Description
As we head into the greyer days of fall (in North America, anyway), what better to wear than a beautiful lavender reminder of springtime? Soft lavender glass is capped with clear and sprinkled through with dichroic accents. Finally, 22k gold butterflies are heat-bonded to the surface of the glass for a fun and shiny addition. Approximately 1 1/2" (3.25cm) in length.Dichroic (from the Greek for "two colors") glass is glass that has been coated with a metallic layer, which reflects and refracts light at different wavelengths, creating a beautiful iridescent effect. When placed in a kiln for fusing, the coating shifts colors and fragments slightly, leaving an amazing sparkle that can't be matched by foil or other methods for adding metallic touches to glass. Created for the aerospace industry, it's now one of the gems in the glassworker's toolbox!
Fully annealed (slowly cooled) in the kiln for strength and durability. Silver plated bail.
NOTE ON NECKLACES: Comes with a lovely stretchy velour adjustable necklace which ranges from 17"-19" (43cm - 48cm). If you prefer to purchase without the necklace, please let me know in the Notes to Seller at checkout, and I will deduct $3.00 from your purchase price!
