Resin Wire Wrapping Pendant with Polymer Clay Feather

To set this very special handmade cabochon I used silver plated copper wire, non-tarnish type, which means it does not oxidize over time.

Feather pendant
The main component has a rectangular shape, I have incorporated in the resin a polymer clay feather (created with the murrine technique) and some small decorations such as turquoise glass micro-pearls and mother-of-pearl flakes, a work of patience and precision.
The pendant measures approximately 30 x 60 mm.
It has a simple, silver nickel free lobster clasp closure.
The length of the silver metal chain (nickel free) is 50 cm, pendant not included.

The feather is linked to a world of different symbols and meanings: in general it has a positive connotation and is chosen as a lucky charm or used to symbolize dreams, desires and lightness of the soul.
The colored plume symbolizes mostly the idea of ​​dream and desire, directly referring to the Native American culture that sees feathers as a positive element of protection from negativity.
The Native Americans, in fact, used the feathers of the birds, especially the eagle - divine animal - to bring the prayers and their desires to the gods, as a lucky charm.
