Lechaim (to life, and to beautiful jewelry)

Description

L'chaim! To life! Be affirmative - life is good!

You don't have to be Jewish to wear the "chai" (but it probably helps).

This pendant was a fiend to make.
But I think it was worth it.

Dichroic and opal art glass mounted on a sterling sliver bail (please note, this is NOT a silver-plated bail, but a hallmarked one).

Background color: cerulean is probably the closest description
Stripes: wispy silver
Lettering: silver with black edging

Kiln-fired at home on the Celtic fringe (look out for some seriously funky Celtic-Judaic glassware coming soon), according to the best practices of the experienced and careful glass artisan, it is properly annealed for strength and durability. Even though this is glass, it is much stronger than you think: it will not scratch or shatter and you cannot break it (but please don't throw it around anyway - it may not be impossible to detach it from the bail, though even that is unlikely).

All my pieces are unique (of course) and are supplied in light-to-post, ecofriendly but nonetheless attractive sachets, handmade by me from handmade (by someone else) paper.

I must once again point out what you probably know - that glass is hard to photograph well, and my camera is especially terrible (I'm hoping to upgrade it in the next few weeks, but in the meantime I struggle between poor pictures and no listings), so give the work some benefit of doubt, and please feel free to convo me with any questions.

UK buyers, please also remember that the dollar is worth about 50p, so mentally halve the prices you see for pound rates.
