sphenoid bone, stump, & moss - bone garden necklace

This one-of-a-kind miniature bone garden mini jar necklace captures the beauty of life growing from what remains.

Inside the tiny glass vial rests an ethically sourced sphenoid bone, harvested from inside a rodent skull that was dissected from owl pellets, resting on a tiny tree stump and a mound of crocheted moss - both components stitched with hand-dyed thread and a 0.5 mm hook.

The charm measures approximately  1.0 x 0.6 in. (2.5 x 1.5 cm.), and dangles on an 18-inch copper-toned zinc alloy necklace chain, making it lightweight and comfortable for everyday wear.

Equal parts hand-stitched botanical and bone, this piece is perfect for collectors of the beautifully macabre - a tiny reminder that even in the midst of decay, new life can flourish.
