Sweet, curious, and full of character, this wonderfully detailed sterling silver bead captures the charm of one of nature's most loveable creatures. Slow and inquisitive by nature, the porcupine never fails to protect itself with its impressive coat of spikes — and we think that makes it rather magnificent. This bead is suitable for bracelets, bangles, and necklaces. Crafted with precision from high-quality 925 Sterling Silver, we use a 3,000-year-old technique called ‘cire perdu’ or ‘lost wax’ which allows for finer details to be displayed. Each bead then goes through an oxidization process to create contrast effects and to give them character. Finally, each bead is hand-polished. Show more
