The Kraken: a creature of lore, haunting the nightmares of sailors for centuries.
A petrified wood coffin, naturally veined throughout with tiny fragments of oceanic blue and teal jasper is held by a large tentacle. The tentacle was formed by hand, with suckers and twists mimicking those of a cephalopod. The backside of the coffin is stamped with my maker's mark (BLJ). The ring for the chain is also captured by the tentacle. The pendant measures approximately 1" tall and 0.6" wide at the widest point. The raised points have been polished to shine, while the low points retain the oxidized color to show off the depth and details. All metal used in this piece is sterling silver.

A few notes on caring for oxidized sterling silver: oxidized patina on sterling silver isn't particularly durable to long-term exposure to water (like bathing or swimming) or a lot of scrubbing, as friction is the way to polish silver to shine. Constant exposure to tasks such as hand washing, bathing, swimming, washing dishes, etc., will slowly wear away the oxidized patina leaving a shiny silver finish.
