Day and Night Necklace

What is hope... by Vineet Bansal

What hope means...
Hope is bright shining light, which keeps darkness at the bay
Hope is gentle cool breeze on a hot summer day
Hope is to remain positive when going gets tough
Hope is seeking more when others think you had enough
What hope means...
Hope is dreaming of tomorrow
Hope is simmering under sorrow
Hope is sparkles when tears are in our eyes
Hope is a beautiful thing and beautiful things never die
What hope means...
Hope is as light as a feather
Hope keeps all of us together
Hope is ubiquitous and free of cost
Hope is the last thing ever lost.....

The focal point of the Day and Night necklace is a gorgeous 40mm black and ivory white dichroic donut that has touches of copper and gold. It is wrapped in a finely crafted 18-gauge copper wire frame that is wound with several feet of a very fine copper wire. The pendants dimensions are 45mm across; and including the bale it is 54mm in length. It is suspended from a beautiful 18-inch long copper chain. Cost - $45.00

I love dichroic glass, the colors just amaze me! For anyone who doesn't know about this wonderful glass, it was originally made for the space program. Through a special process, (I will try to give you a short version) the manufacturer adds a thin coating of different metals to the surface of the glass. Each metal makes a different color and shifts to another color. These special coatings protect the astronauts while in space by their reflective qualities, while allowing them to see out of the vehicle. This glass is so durable, you can actually drop it on the floor and it will not shatter! Although, I would not recommend doing this, (even diamonds will shatter), you don't have to worry if you drop your dichroic glass jewelry!

This wire wrapped pendant will be listed on my website very soon! Check out some of my other new listing by clicking on the link on the right side of my blog!

Elegantly yours.....
