Spider Necklace and Earrings Set
Item: SPIDER-2
Price: $135.00

This pendant is a hand sculpted one of a kind piece.  It is made from black stoneware so it is very hard. The design is from the ancient mound builders.  They used this spider design on various carved pieces.  Gorgets, Stone circles, etc.  The legend of the spider says that she is the one that brought back the coals for the first council fire in a bowl that she spun on her back.  I have made the spider 3D and placed red crystals in the bowl to designate the coals.  There are also crystals in her eyes and in the dots on her rear end.  Spirals are a common design element in many of the mound builder designs as was the use of copper and I have included hammered copper spirals in the necklace for this piece to bring in that element from the ancients..  The necklace on this piece alternates between the hammered copper spirals and links with lava rock and coral beads to further tie into the coals for the council fire.. 

Size: Stoneware Spider is 3.75 inches long by 3.25 nches wide at widest point.  The chain is 27 inches long   It closes with a copper toggle.

Earrings are 1.5 inches long on copper earwires.
