Ermines - OOAK Biosphere order Wood Jewelry - Clear glass globe with two delicate Ermines inside– winter/spring inspired jewelry

This pendant is the perfect accessory that winter is once again going to yield to spring! It shows two highly detailed handcrafted miniature ermines in their summer and winter form in their natural habitat.
The listing you see here is for a pendant which measures approximately 30mm/1,18" and has been handcrafted from mahogany wood by Marco and Betty from Artbase . The Globe measures 25mm/0,98”.
I've termed these little glass globes biospheres, as each of them hosts a little environment, which in this case is a tiny hummingbird sitting on a little twig. The materials are Beesputty, painted with various paints and sealed with varnish. It sits on a base of various modelling grasses and mosses. I added a sturdy glass cap so you can wear this little critter around as you go about your day. Although this is obviously sturdier than if it was without protection, it is still fairly delicate, so there is a possibility of parts to break, if it gets dropped or shaken too much. So please be gentle with it.
Each of my biospheres is one of a kind; With the purchase of this you are buying an original; handcrafted with lots of love.
Included is a fine order brass chain in a length you can determine yourself. You can just include your preference at the checkout. I personally wear mine at 47cm/18” which hits me just below the collarbone which restrains the movement enough so that the pendant won't hit anything when swinging. Though you might have to take it off when people want to admire your pendant.
If you would like to amp that up a little, I also offer a selection of fine gold-plated silver chains in various lengths. There's also a “display only” option if you don't intend to wear it as jewelry at all.

In these pendants I strove to show the change of season by the animals who show it most clearly with changing the colour of their coat. So what you see here are the two versions of the Ermine side by side, each sitting in their natural seasonal surrounding; the white one among a bed of snow and the more earthy coloured in a field of grass sprinkled with little specks of lilac flowers.
This little pendant comes in my signature packaging which is handmade as well. I designed it to complement the piece while still providing optimal support throughout its travels.
