Just like a majestic tiger who likes solitude, this gray tiger necklace is both bold and delicate. ♥
If you're in love with big cats (or small ones for that matter) this necklace might just be for you.
Please note that the necklace you'll get may slightly differ from the ones pictured. I try to make them as similar as possible but due to the handmade nature of the pieces, small differences may be present. If you'd like to pick your own tiger pendant, please message me and I'll send you more photos.

↠ Production process
The tiger pendant is first sculpted by hand from porcelain clay.
After sculpting, the piece is dried, sanded and bisque fired. It's then painted with lead-free underglazes and finished with a clear coat of glaze for that glassy look and feel of touch; the finished piece feels like a polished stone in your hand.
The glaze firing is at 1200°C. The high temperature gives porcelain its hardness.
The pendant is finished with precious metal lusters - 22K gold, platinum and mother of pearl. The pendant is then returned in the kiln for one final firing.
Altogether each piece is fired at least three times at three different temperatures.
Each creature spends a total of 50+ hours in the kiln.
All the creatures in this shop are made by me with lots of love in my little home studio.

↠ Care
Porcelain is a very sturdy material when fired at a high temperature but it may chip or brake if dropped on a hard surface.
If you can keep it safe from the forces of gravity, your creature may be with you forever.
You can wash it with soft soap and warm water and it's best to avoid harsh or abrasive chemicals.
↠ Safety
Please note, that this necklace is not suitable for small children as it may be a safety hazard.
