Tidal Necklace No. 5 Bubbles

This one-of-a-kind, reversible statement necklace created by Kate Mess is as stunning with jeans and a t-shirt or sweater as it is with more formal dress. Catering to modern and earthy sensibilities alike, one side features bold colors in yellow, white, black, and green, while the other side showcases marbled, shimmery rusts and sea-greens. The effect is reminiscent of light, shadow, and stones underwater. The artist has identified fishing lures as her inspiration of this piece. An avid ice fishing enthusiast, Kate has us hook, line, and sinker. The process of making this piece involves fusing colored glass to copper in a hot kiln or with a torch. The result is a vitreous enamel, a material of near-permanence and durability. The handmade chain of bent and hammered silver is just as important as the beautiful pendant itself. - Central enamel cluster 3.5” x 3”, necklace 21” long- Reversible- Vitreous enamel, copper, oxidized Argentium silver Kate Mess is an award-winning contemporary je
