Vintage Arizona China Shard Pendant Necklace - Sterling Silver - Recycled Souvenir Plate Jewelry

Give a forgotten piece of history a beautiful new life.

These one-of-a-kind pendant necklaces began as a broken vintage Arizona souvenir plate. Rather than allowing damaged china to be discarded, I carefully select interesting illustrations, cut the porcelain into pendant-sized pieces, and transform each fragment into handcrafted sterling silver jewelry.

Each pendant preserves a small piece of vintage Americana while celebrating the artistry and craftsmanship of upcycled jewelry.

• Native American Woman – Rug Weaver
• Native American Man – Sand Painter

Each porcelain shard is hand-set in fine and sterling silver to protect the edges while showcasing the original vintage artwork. The pendant hangs from a handcrafted 18-inch genuine leather cord finished with a sterling silver clasp and sterling silver findings.

These necklaces make wonderful gifts for lovers of vintage treasures, sustainable fashion, and one-of-a-kind artisan jewelry. Since each pendant comes from reclaimed china, no two pieces can ever be exactly alike.

Handmade in my studio

Every piece I create is individually handcrafted in my studio using traditional metalsmithing techniques and carefully selected natural gemstones. Rather than mass-producing jewelry, I create wearable works of art designed to celebrate the beauty found in nature.
