Horse Dream Rustic Pendant Necklace, Mixed Gemstones Handmade Jewelry
Item Description
This exquisite one of a kind necklace is absolutely perfect for the woman who loves horse jewelry combined with an inspirational message. The DREAM necklace features an artisan running horse rustic ceramic pendant which is highlighted beautifully with luscious, earthy mixed gemstone heishe and copper. The artisan ceramic pendant is kiln fired with a distressed glossy white linen glaze over a light colored terracotta clay. The pendant is Southwest rustic in style - not perfectly rectangular for eye catching appeal. A petroglyph-inspired running horse is centered on the pendant and “dream” runs diagonally from under the horse to the right corner. Both the running horse and “dream” are raised against the background for wonderful texture. Above the horse is a geometric design, designs often seen on Navajo blankets. The back of the pendant is unglazed and can be used as an essential oil diffuser: just add a few drops of essential oil and the scent will last for several hours to several days. A heavy duty copper jump ring connects the horse pendant to the main body of the necklace.
To perfectly complement the running horse ceramic pendant, hand cut, mixed gemstone heishe discs were used, primarily different jaspers and agates, but other stones as well. The colors are wonderfully earthy: white, yellows, terracotta reds, greens, blues, grays and black with other colors mixed in. To provide wonderful drape when the necklace is worn, copper beads separate groups of alternating five and three heishe. Since the heishe is hand cut, the discs are very similar in size, but some are just a tad bigger and some a tad smaller adding to the rustic interest of the necklace. A solid copper toggle clasp set finishes the unique necklace securely. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the DREAM necklace will make a wonderful gift for the woman who is a horse lover and a dreamer at the same time.

Horses symbolize strength and vitality and the ability to overcome obstacles in life to pursue goals no matter what may stand in the way. All types of jasper are believed to give the wearer the courage to speak out and the bravery to achieve personal independence. Agates are used to help ease stressful situations, protect against danger and promote strength and healing. Copper is said to allow the wearer to recognize barriers in the path of personal development.
The DREAM artisan necklace was carefully designed and handmade in a dog friendly, smoke free studio. The necklace will come with two informational drop tags: one with the piece's name; the other lists the materials used in the necklace and the language of the stones and metals. It will be carefully packed in an organza jewelry bag, perfect for gift giving to a loved one . . . or to yourself!
