Inspiration: Ancient Black Sea shipwrecks

Name: Anoxic Depths Necklace

Description:
Inspired by ancient Black Sea shipwrecks, particularly "the world's oldest intact shipwreck," a 2,400+-year-old, Greek merchant vessel. Color inspiration from "The Black Sea at night" by Ivan Aivazovsky.

Little treasures pulled from the dark depths of the Black Sea, where an ancient ship awaits explorers to raise it from the dead. Vibrant greens and aged copper charms, reminiscent of an ancient nautilus, an urchin, and structural spikes.

The color, texture, and amount of patina vary naturally on all the pieces of the pendant – some will lean bluer, some greener; some will be almost entirely patina, some mostly copper; some will be brighter copper, some darker. Additionally, the shape of each piece varies slightly. However, any differences are slight, and make your piece unique to you!

All parts of the pendant are two-sided, so you can easily flip this to have the nautilus go the other way, and never have to worry about putting it on the “right” way.

The chain is approx. 30.875” long, and you can clasp the necklace anywhere along the chain to wear it shorter. The pendant is approx. 2” long.

Materials: Base, lead-free metal plated with patinaed copper (Greek/Mykonos copper); antique copper plated iron; copper.

Price: $15

Cap: 35 US, 4 UK
