Nikolia - Exoskeleton - Skeleton Key Woven Silver Necklace

Vintage Skeleton Keys are little lost secrets.  They're artifacts from a life we cannot see into, but a life we can imagine. It's what makes skeleton keys so intriguing and enduring. I've been obsessed with them since I was a little girl and my Grandmother first showed me her ring of skeleton keys. One skeleton key unlocked her cedar wardrobe, where garments, coats and hats, too fancy for a regular old closet resided. 

This Woven Silver Pendant with Sterling Silver Oval link chain is 18" and features two steel and patinated, authentic vintage Skeleton Keys. I call this my Exoskeleton Bow Tie style-- you know, for formal occasions and fun dinners out with friends. I've used Fine Silver (99.9% pure) Wire to weave the keys together. The keys are right around 2 1/8" long. The pendant is 1" across the woven portion and 1 3/8" at the top.

All Pieces are hand woven and bench made by me, Margaret Aden, in my Arizona Studio. Custom Lengths are available, you can FB Messenger me in the bottom right hand corner of every page!
