TIGER KITTY - Cat Lovers Necklace, Tiger Iron Gemstone Chunky Boho Handmade Jewelry

About:

Big and bold and with a large dose of funky boho vibes, the TIGER KITTY handmade pendant necklace is perfect for the woman who loves cats and loves wearing one of a kind jewelry! The unique necklace features an artisan orange cat pendant with an oxidized look, striped tiger iron gemstones, leather and copper. The pendant was artisan created from polymer clay, wider at the bottom than at the top. The cat design was hand carved; then acrylic pigments and colored pencils were added, along with mica iron oxide for a grainy texture and a glowing sparkle. A thin coat of crystal fixative was applied to protect the pendant for many years of wearing pleasure. As you can see in the photos, the pendant has an oxidized look to it with a simplified rusty orange cat image with long whiskers against a darker background. A thin oxidized copper “frame” runs along the edge of the pendant. The back side is also painted and has the artist’s mark. To add even more of a boho look, the cat pendant is connected to the main body of the necklace with a securely knotted brown leather cord.

Large tiger iron gemstone rounds were chosen to perfectly complement the cat pendant. Tiger iron is a beautiful gemstone found in Australia, an aggregate with layers of tigers eye, red jasper and black hematite. The tiger iron used in the necklace shades from pale brown to black and is gloriously striped, each gemstone different from each other. To add even more glow to the necklace, 3 mm copper beads separate each tiger iron round. A textured copper s-clasp securely fastens the necklace. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the TIGER KITTY pendant necklace is a meaningful gift for the woman who adores her cat(s) and loves to wear unique designer jewelry with a boho flair.
