Joan of Arc

Inspired by Joan of Arc, this handmade necklace features a fine silver broach reproduction of the famed saint. It is made of PMC and fired and then oxidized. I have wire wrapped snowflake obsidian beads with sterling silver wire that has been oxidized. Sterling silver spacer beads and black beads are wrapped into the necklace along with a sterling silver saber looking cross. A small vintage medal of Joan of arc hangs off the right side and a small pewter cross is on the left side. Measures 19 1/2 inches long from top to tip of cross. This necklace is one of a kind and comes with a message to remember to have faith, courage and follow what you believe to be true, just as Joan baby did a long time ago.

About Me

Cassandra
I use art as an expression of myself through jewelry making. I can't see the top of my studio desks. I started out using precious metal clay in my jewelry and then have incorporated a more organic feel by creating pendants from brass and solder technique. I use beads of all kinds, sterling silver chains, sterling silver hand made chain, brass, copper, leather and whatever I find outside....a butterfly wing, twig, beach glass....I'm a collector, so I like to add what I find to my jewelry in a way that it speaks to me. Hope you enjoy my pieces. You may contact me at cassmacme@aol.com if you have any questions or want something special. Pay Pal available. The music box at the end of the blog may be turned to mute if you desire.

What is PMC?

PMC is 99% pure silver flakes that is incorporated into clay. You can shape it, mold it, stamp it into anything you want and then fire it and the clay will burn off in the kiln and the silver piece will remain.
