Once a upon a time 30 years ago I went to Indonesia to poke around and see what I might be able to use in my work. I have a love for mother of pearl buttons and given the amount of clothing being made from that part of the world there were pretty good odds of finding button factories.

I talked my way into one of the factories and as I walked through watching the women making the buttons I saw these button blanks on the floor. I lost all interest in buying buttons and much to the owners surprise I asked to buy the blanks. I picked up as many as I could and left feeling like a dragon taking my treasure back to my lair.

I drilled holes where I wanted to put pearls and voila.

Measures approximately 24” to the bottom of the pendant.
