Celtic Cross - Copper Wirework Cross With Prehnite On A Viking Knit Chain
Copper wire and Prehnite
Sold
This little cross is packed with intricate detail. The central green Prehnite faceted stone is set with a criss cross pattern and surrounded by copper beads around the outside. Tiny woven Celtic patterns fill the top three sections of the cross, whilst the flowing lines of the wrapped copper wire in the bottom section add a lovely contrast to the texture of the wire.
I have made the Viking knit chain from very this copper wire which I have formed into a double knit. The chain is finished with handmade end caps, links and clasp.
The pendant is 1 2/3' tall (from the top of the bail to the bottom of the cross) and 1 1/4' wide. The chain is 16 1/2' long and 1/8' wide.
I have oxidised this necklace, giving it an antiqued effect, to really highlight the detail.
