Silver textured pendant necklace with hanging heart and stars on 18" sterling silver chain.  This is a one-of-a-kind necklace hand-made in Joanne Jolly-Kay's studio in Beverly, MA. This was made with silver metal clay which is textured, cut, formed, and fired in a kiln to burn off the organic binder, leaving the solid silver metal. Then the metal is polished, with multiple grits of sandpaper or other polishing tools. Then comes the assembly of the pieces with jump rings, clasps, chains, and earring wires.
