This pendent is made from polymer inlayed with gold leaf. It is strung on a 25 inch faux suade that ties in a bow to fasten.
Polymer clay is a sculptable material based on the polymer PVC. It usually contains no clay minerals, and is only called "clay" because its texture and working properties resemble those of mineral clay.
Pigments may be added to the translucent base to create a variety of colours.
