Impression Pendants use found textures in the physical world as jewelry molds. They are made by creating impressions from textures found around the world from historically and culturally significant landmarks and objects. Each pendant is individually hand-sculpted and hand-fired.
Up until 1992, the Games took place in the same calendar year. The Olympic Games are now held every four years, with the Summer and Winter Games alternating by occurring every four years but two years apart.
This impression is from the commemorative medal of the 1984 Olympic Games. The Summer Games took place in Los Angeles, and the Winter Games took place in Sarajevo.
Each pendant is individually hand-sculpted and hand-fired with recycled Japanese fine silver (999FS). This fine silver has been specially formulated to be more durable than typical fine silvers. Like all fine jewelry, handle with care.
Silver naturally oxidizes when exposed to the elements and will require occasional cleaning. Look for silver polishes, solutions, or cloths appropriate to remove tarnish at most hardware or specialty craft stores. Avoid exposing silver to household chemicals when cleaning with bleach or ammonia, or when swimming in chlorinated water.
