Bronze Spiral Sun Necklace, Honey Onyx Gemstone Handmade Jewelry Gift

The "Summer Daze" handmade necklace features an artisan created bronze spiral sun pendant, honey onyx gemstones and copper - unique summer jewelry for women.

The SUMMER DAZE pendant necklace is filled with the beauty and wonder of ancient symbolism, perfect handmade jewelry to wear on those hot summer days. The one of a kind necklace features a glowing artisan created bronze spiral sun pendant, unique honey onyx gemstones and copper.  Often found in the Anasazi people’s petroglyphs, a spiral sun is a symbol of healing and the natural rhythms of life, death and rebirth.  Artisan crafted from pure glowing bronze, the round pendant has a spiral sun design, the spiral in the center of the sun with rays emanating from it. The design is raised off the background lending the pendant a wonderful tactile texture. Slightly domed in shape, the pendant has a smooth back. To perfectly complement the glorious bronze color of the pendant and to add even more summery goodness, natural honey onyx gemstones and copper make up the main body of the necklace. Honey onyx is a unique stone, prized for centuries due to its exotic look and translucent qualities. As its name suggests, the gemstones are a lovely pale honey color with a slight greenish tinge. Stripes and swirling clouds of mellow orange and darker brown can be found in some of the rounds.  Most of the gemstones are beautifully translucent, which can be seen when the necklace is held up to the light. Copper bicones and disc spacers were used to add groupings to the design, between every five honey onyx rounds. A copper hook clasp set securely fastens the necklace when worn. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the SUMMER DAZE necklace was created for the woman who loves wearing fun jewelry with an ancient, mystical feel.

An artisan made spiral sun bronze pendant is perfectly paired with unique translucent honey onyx.

Spiral Sun Pendant Necklace, Polymer Clay Petroglyph Handmade Jewelry

The "Desert Sun" handmade necklace features an artisan spiral sun pendant, carnelian gemstones and copper - unique Southwest inspired jewelry.

Filled with an ancient wonder of the magic of petroglyphs, the DESERT SUN handmade necklace is a perfect jewelry gift for the woman who loves the beauty of the Desert Southwest. The unique necklace features a one of a kind, artisan spiral sun pendant created from polymer clay, two sizes of carnelian and copper. Inspired by Anasazi petroglyphs found painted on canyon walls and caves in the Four Corners area, spiral suns are a symbol of healing and also represent the natural movements and rhythms of life, the constant motion of the universe. The  rustically shaped pendant has a freehand hand carved spiral sun design on white polymer clay. After curing, the pendant was painted w/ earthy desert colored pigments.  A very light coat of a sealer was applied to keep the colors bright for years to come. The backside of the pendant is  inscribed with the artist’s mark, a spiral P.   Two sizes of carnelian gemstones perfectly highlight the earthy petroglyph pendant. As you can see in the photos, the carnelian ranges in colors from dark orange to almost white. The larger round gemstones are faceted for subtle sparkle. Between each faceted stone are a single carnelian round.   A copper s-clap with a raised design finishes the beautiful necklace. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the spiraling DESERT SUN pendant necklace was created for the woman who adores talismanic petroglyph jewelry and the enchantment of the Desert Southwest.

The unique petroglyph-inspired pendant was created from white polymer clay with an incised spiral sun design.
