PENDANT SPECIFICATIONS: Weight: 1.0 ounce (31 grams), Diameter/Width: 1.5” (38mm), Height w/Bail: 1.92”(49mm), Thickness: .43” (11mm)

The centerpiece of this pendant is the complete upper and pillar plates from a Circa 1870 Irish Lever Fusee pocket watch movement by Schreiber Brothers - Clock and Watch Makers of Dublin Ireland. This is a fairly rare piece since Ireland was not a center of watchmaking industry - so finding this one was a real treat! The upper plate is complete with it's ornate floral design carved brass balance cock and polished steel balance wheel and parts and is now repurposed into this heirloom piece of jewelry. The upper plate was disassembled and each component is painstakingly polished, metallic foil added underneath the balance wheel, re-assembled, crystals added, then coated in a thick layer of epoxy resin. The Pillar Plate was cleaned and prepared - along with shortening the Egyptian Pillars - and is mounted to the upper plate and adorned with a multi crystal spacer and Emerald and Emerald AB Swarovski crystal rhinestones (in between the two plates).

The movement is mounted to a 1/16" acrylic disc that has a cut-out for the gold plated bail and a pour of emerald green and gold mica tinted epoxy completely encapsulates the bail, making it a permanent part of the pendant. The larger diameter bail will fit most chains without the need for additional mounting rings.

METAL ALLERGIES NOTICE: 304 stainless steel and 316L surgical steel have extremely low Nickel levels and are often safe to wear even for individuals with a Nickel allergy to enjoy wearing occasionally. 304 stainless steel has 8% Nickel, compared to 10% in 316L Nickel, making it the safest of all stainless steel. 18ct Gold Plated Stainless Steel is even safer, but the gold can wear thin over time - exposing the stainless steel underneath. 304 stainless steel contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel and 74% iron.
