NOTE: All my Kintsugi pieces are gilded with GENUINE gold leaf--which are sheets of actual 22-23k Gold metal! The misnomer "Liquid Gold Leaf" like you'll find elsewhere is NOT GOLD.---It's toxic Xylene mixed with *copper*, made by Plaid! Traditional Kintsugi items are made with glue mixed with powders (mostly mica or brass). I ONLY use genuine, authentic, metallic 23k gold!

Kintsugi Broken Heart Dainty Pyrite Pendant Mended with Gold, Petite Cord Necklace, Minimalist, Zen, Kintsukuroi, On Inspirational Card, .925 Clasp
KINTSUGI: Japanese for "repaired with gold", an ancient technique that celebrates objects that have been broken by repairing the cracks with gold. Imperfection is beautiful, and mending is transformative! This gemstone heart has been mended with gold to declare "You are more beautiful for having been broken."
A beautiful petite polished metallic Pyrite "mended heart" pendant has been simply hung on a silky soft yet unbreakable silk-like cord. This stone is also called "Fool's Gold" and feels smooth and cool against the skin.
Mindfully broken, then mended with epoxy, gold dust, and genuine 23k gold leaf.
*This is NOT paint, but is genuine 23k gold leaf*
This repaired heart proudly symbolizes transformation, strength and beauty in imperfection.
PENDANT: Genuine bronze-gold Pyrite gemstone dainty heart. The heart is about 1/2" long and wide (14mm) and is about 1/4" thick. It is a beautiful metallic golden-bronze color, with nice golden sparkling flecks. It is mended on both sides as shown, using the Kintsukuroi technique. Smooth, puffy and polished.
This is a small heart, perfect for a young girl or for anyone who loves dainty jewelry.
Pyrite symbolizes protection, emotional balance, enlightenment, harmony, and good fortune.
CORD: Unbreakable, silky nylon cord in any length or color you choose. This cord will never break, stretch, fray, or lose color. Silk-like feel and sheen. Choose from Golden, Hematite Grey, or Pure Black.
Choose your length from the drop-down box, or choose Custom and leave a note with length.
► Why cord and not chain? Unlike chain this cord is hypoallergenic and will never tarnish or need special care. Can be worn while showering without worry. Plus, wearing a gemstone on a cord allows for the appreciation of the pure, organic beauty of the gem.
CLASP: Argentium Sterling Silver spring clasp. Argentium silver is a premium sterling silver and is hypoallergenic.
Please wear with care, and remove before showering or swimming.
