Pin - Magellanic Penguin Cloisonne Enamel

By: Bamboo Jewelry

Beautiful colored glass on a sterling silver base.  The reverse side is brushed with enamel to add strength and minimize tarnishing.

A colorful celebration of nature, art and science!  This pin is handcrafted using a foundation of sterling silver on which fine braided wire separates cells of color, and on which metallic powders, when fired in a kiln, transform into luminous glass.

approximate size 1¾" tall x 1½" wide

All BAMBOO Jewelry is packaged in eco-friendly bamboo gift boxes lined with anti-tarnish fabric; each with an information card detailing the piece, the designer and the company's green initiatives.  Perfect for gift-giving.

The bamboo for these gift boxes is plantation grown without irrigation, fertilizers, or pesticides; nor is it habitat for pandas.  Nearly all the silver in BAMBOO jewelry is recycled, and their goal is to use 100% recycled silver.  In 2007, they decided any environmental impacts they couldn't reduce to zero they'd offset with carbon credits, making BAMBOO Jewelry the world's first carbon neutral jewelry company.
