Statement Necklace featuring Encaustic Beads

Description

UNIQUE STATEMENT NECKLACE featuring one-of-a-kind, handmade encaustic beads made using the ancient Egyptian art form of painting with molten bees wax, tree resin and natural pigments. Perhaps the only such jewelry item featuring the use of encaustics. Because of the inhierent unpredictability of working with molten wax on a rounded surface it is extremely difficult to control the wax with a heated tool and then heat seal each layer with a torch.

This large, one of a kind necklace is perfect for encaustic art enthusiasts and Boho inspired jewelry lovers. A durable seal ensures lasting wear while the detailed design makes it an eye catching accessary. This stunning, big, bold and beautiful piece would make a perfect gift for yourself as well as a thoughtful gift for art lovers and those that appreciate fine artisan craftsmanship.

High quality, hand made craftsmanship, designed and created by the encaustic artist, La’Nelle Gambrell. It takes one to two weeks to complete each piece from design to finish. Therefore the supply is extremely limited. Due to the unusual qualities of encaustic as well as the sometimes unpredictable outcome of working with heated tools, torches and molten wax, every necklace and earring set is unique and will never be duplicated.

Each unique jewelry piece contains a variety of beads; hand painted wood, encaustic, paper and clay as well as glass and vintage finds. The craftsmanship involved results in a one-of-a-kind piece reflecting the artistic imagination of the artist as well as the wearer.
