This pendant was hand-forged, by me, from sterling silver sheet and wire, formed with a selection of vintage hammers with all pieces cut by hand using a jeweler’s saw.

The pendant features a piece of steel from a 1967 Mercury Cougar. The information card pictured in this listing will be included with this pendant. I salvaged the body metal from a car in a classic car parts yard in South Dakota.

The steel is attached to the silver pendant with two fine silver tube rivets. The shape of this pendant was inspired by the shapes of vintage motel and diner signs and is part of my Atomic Highway series.

This pendant measures 3/4 of an inch wide by 2 inches tall.

This is rustic. You can see the hammer marks and rough surface on the metal. This pendant has been oxidized to bring out the hammer marks, polished to a satin finish, and sealed with an archival acrylic wax.

This Cougar body steel is a red color. It has some small chips in the surface and wear marks. The steel has been sealed with clear gloss lacquer front and back. I still would not recommend wearing this in the shower or pool or other body of water.

A 20″ stainless steel bead chain included. If you want another length of stainless steel chain, let me know and I’ll replace the 20″ chain with one of your desired length (no additional cost – use the “contact” button on the homepage to contact me about another chain length).

Price includes USPS Priority Mail shipping inside the U.S.
