Abstract Burgundy Abalone Pendant

Adorn yourself or a loved one with this beautiful abstract pendant. I formed an abstract shape out of 26-gauge steel wire and attached an abalone square onto it for extra sparkle. Then I dipped some burgundy tissue paper into encaustic medium (a beeswax and resin mixture) and adhered it to the shape.

This funky pendant measures 3 inches long by 2 inches wide and comes with a black satin cord.

Encaustics should be cared for as you would for any fine art piece. Encaustic derives from the word “burn in” and is a process of applying molten wax colors to a surface for the creation of images or decoration that began more than 2 millennia ago with Roman Egyptian wax portraits.
