Snake Shed Necklace- Reversible Tiffany Patina- Copper chain

This bold design is a one of a kind hand-formed Copper necklace coated in real snake shed on one side, with a lovely teal patina on the other side- making it a versatile piece that's two for one! A dramatic accessory that takes "earthy" style to the next level. Dress up or down- either way you'll be wearing an adornment that will turn heads, start conversations, and delight the eye of the beholder.   What is “Snake Shed”, and how is that different than Snake SKIN?  A snake's skin does not grow with it, so as it increases in size, it needs to shed its outer layer of scales -including the special scales that cover its eyes! Healthy snakes will shed in one continuous piece, rolling it off like a sock, emerging from their old skin shiny and new. This is Snake Shed. Snake SKIN, on the other hand, is harvested by killing the animal like any other type of leather. Check out Shira's Snake Therapy Youtube Channel to learn more about these amazing animals!  The Pendent is coated with many layers of lacquer and fixatives to prevent decay and tear.  This piece was made using the shed from a Dominican Red Mountain Boa in my collection named "Helios".
