Silver Locket Necklace with Bird Nest
Silver Locket Necklace with Bird Nest
Couldn't load pickup availability
My handmade locket is textured with prairie ticklegrass on the front and back. I cut a small window on the front for an observer to peek into the grass to view a nest with one single egg. There is a clasp that can be worn in the front or back. Attached to the clasp is a Mother-of-Pearl bird charm.
I call this piece, “Safe Space”. It celebrates our prairie ground-nesting birds and their attempt to create a safe space for their offspring. The thick prairie grass makes a good nest as well as good cover against predators. This expresses my gratitude to all who create a safe space for others.
This will be shipped with signature required.

Care information
Care information
Your order will come with a polishing cloth to touch up your jewelry pieces. I oxidize (tarnish) and polish the highlights of most of my jewelry pieces to bring out the texture of the prairie grasses and wildflowers. This oxidation will come off if polished with the cloth. When polishing pieces, polish only the raised surfaces to keep the dark oxidation.
Don't wear jewelry while swimming in a chlorinated pool or hot tub. Be aware that your piece can be damaged by some physical activities.











My Guarantee:
Each piece is made with care. If for any reason a purchase is not what you expected, please contact me for directions on a return. I do think you'll be pleased though.
