This exquisite cross necklace is made from the marriage of 4 spoon (actually it was dinner forks) handles. Please note, this item is not a cast replica of a handmade silverware creation, it is an actual handmade silverware creation.
These four handles were carefully cut to fit together then prepped before being married together to form this gorgeous cross. The front of the cross is adorned with a turquoise colored stone wrapped encased in a silverware "neck" piece leftover from another project. The back is adorned with a circle disc punch-out from one of our spoon guitar belt buckles and is stamped with a sweet heart.
We call this necklace the "Rose" Necklace. Matt made the first one for his own mother Rose. It turned out so beautifully we decided to make more!! And of course she bought the next one we made...so we made even more!

For all our designs we choose wonderful vintage/antique silverplate cutlery. Once chosen, the pieces are modified and beautified by HAND; they are cut, drilled, filed and polished. We do not cast/mold any of our designs, they are all HANDmade, one-of-a-kind creations.
Condition: Please note, this is an antique item that was once used as a utensil. As a result, there may be some wear to the silver-plate, fine scratches or marks from use. But some wear gives the piece patina and personality. We do our best to disclose any condition issues of note.
