Shell Necklace

This shell pendant is made entirely from paper.  I hand-cut the strips from acid-free charcoal paper.  The part that looks yellow is actually edge-gilded with 23k gold.  I coated the inside with clear varnish to protect it from wear.  This won “Best of Show – Crafts” at the Maryland State Fair.  It is about 2″ x 2″, with a gold chain.  Artist’s collection.
