This necklace is a Red Maple bud made of silver clay. I create a mold using the bud, make an impression with the silver clay, fire it with a hand torch and the end result is this beautiful sterling silver charm. The charm measures just about 1/2 of an inch and the sterling silver ball chain is 18 inches. Because these are handmade, each one will be slightly different due to the molding, firing and polishing process and that makes each one unique!
