The Story 🌸💀
Transforming local roadside tragedy into high-fashion wearable conservation, this 34-inch statement necklace features a single, beautifully sun-cured side of an ethically salvaged Florida raccoon pelvis (innominate bone). The natural obturator foramen creates a built-in focal window, which is looped directly with a vibrant cluster of hot pink 6/0 glass seed beads serving as a seamless, integrated bail.
Strung along a continuous, rhythmically patterned strand of electric blue and bold red 6/0 glass seed beads, this piece brings high-contrast pop-art energy to raw natural history.
