raven skull // copper electroformed 3-d printed pendant necklace

Feeling raven-ous for some gothic glam? This cheeky copper raven skull pendant is your new mood. What starts with a 3D printed skull base, is then hit with a little electroforming magic - zapping it with copper particles until it's gorgeously gleaming. Tiny blue/black Czech glass beads scatter around the skull like little mischievous spirits, adding serious personality and enhancing its delightfully macabre charm. The approx. 24" copper-plated beaded chain ensures this conversation starter hangs at just the right length to be admired, and it slips right over your head (no clasp needed), so you can rock this show-stopper instantly. Each skull is one-of-a-kind since electroforming is basically alchemy - no two are ever alike. Perfect for adding a touch of whimsical darkness to any ensemble – because who says gothic can't be fun?

Electroforming is a slow, intricate process where copper particles are deposited onto another object using a low voltage electrical charge. The intended piece is painted with a conductive medium and suspended in an electrolytic solution for between 12 - 48 hours allowing the copper ions to coat a thick layer onto the original piece. It is then removed from the solution, polished, can have a patina applied and then sealed.

The results are beautiful, organic and unique to each piece. No two pieces will ever be identical even if created under the exact same conditions at the same time.
