Jewelry with a sentimental secret! This necklace was handcrafted from a tiny, vintage pencil lead tin. The lid slides off to reveal a small compartment lined with a colorful piece of vintage tin.. like a portal into another world. The pendant has space to add your own tiny treasures, such as a birthstone or a lock of hair. The delicate metal treasure box is embellished with a hammered golden hoop and a dappled teardrop of hand cut brass. 

Suspended from a delicate antiqued brass filigree chain that adjusts from 22" to 24" long, with a lobster claw closure. Shadowbox measures 1 5/8 x 3/8". Entire pendant measures 3 1/2" long. You will receive the exact necklace shown. 

We think the pencil lead tin makes this necklace a great gift for a teacher, writer, bookworm, artist or anyone that appreciates quirky, interactive jewelry.

This lovely, lightweight jewelry is handcrafted from recycled vintage tins. Most of these intricately printed tins were manufactured in England in the 1960s and 70s to contain items such as tea and cookies.
In a previous life, the beautiful vintage tins that this jewelry is made from was used and loved. You may find variances in the artwork such as tiny scratches and dings.
