Purpleheart HEART Pendant, a Real Heart This Time
« on: October 23, 2009, 11:58:24 PM »




This pendant is like the ebony one, only made from purpleheart wood. I did one in both silver and gold chain, but silver is pictured. 18" silver cross chain. Finished with clear gloss, UV protecting spar polyurethane.

I've never heard of that kind of wood. It's really pretty.

Thanks Christine and Joanne.

Purpleheart is native to Central and South America.

Very pretty Jan, I love that it is a wider heart rather than long and narrow.  Very pretty!

Thanks, Brenda. Actually, it is much easier to work being a wider piece.

Thanks, Sharon!  :D

You  know, a picture, no matter how good it is,  just never does justice to the real thing, in person.

Nice work scheduled tweet

Love the wood especially, not to hot on the chain, but that's more my preference.

Thanks, Andrew! 

I'm kinda stuck on the chain, as it's the best looking medium weight chain I can find out there for now. I think the heart, even as lightweight as it is, would overpower the tiny sterling cable chain I have.
