**************

DESCRIPTION:

Whether you want to display this on a strand of leather so you can give it some Santa Fe charm,or on a strand of oxidized 925 beads,one thing that can't be denied is the wonderful old school/ southwestern look it has!

Everything about these pendants is literally made by hand!

Each pendant is made of ingot sterling that had been poured into tufa stone..Tufa is known to give the metal texture, but with these the Tufa texture was then pounded out by hand forging the metal through pounding & working the metal over & over into shape & then later filed & stamped.

What I personally love is not only the look each have,but the finishing is something for the eyes!!They have this gorgeous brush/matte/oxidized that only hand finishing can give you..

For their size they are pretty thick & have a good weight..The bale is made of a thick gauge wire that has about a 10 mm opening,so if you do use a Navajo Pearl necklace,I would keep it at a 8 mm bead or under so it can 'breathe' & move around.(If you use leather,no worries!)

UNISEX! These will work for all ages!From teen to adult,male or female!

ABOUT 'FALCON TRADING & BUBBA SHACKELFORD':

Falcon Trading company was started in the early 1980s by Bubba Shackelford in Prescott Arizona. Bubba got his earliest start from Jock & Al Favour who are apart of a group of artists with names like "Jesse Robbins-(who actually got his start working with Bubba at Falcon), Charlie Favour,Joe Eby,Dennis Hogan",etc..These artists all have much in common with each other in regards to their jewelry styles,which leans toward where everything is completely crafted by hand,working with heavy gauge ingot silver to giving these most incredible finishes that that emulate vintage styles from decades ago..

Bubba began by selling his jewelry out of his Ford Falcon automobile all over town, giving Falcon Trading Company it's namesake. Bubba produced FTC jewelry for many years afterwards, until his sight began to fade from diabetes. In 2014 Bubba took on a young student at that time named Joe O'Neill, who is now the head silversmith at Falcon Trading, and works with Bubba daily to continue on the tradition of creating beautiful tufa cast ingot jewelry in the southwestern/Santa Fe style. Bubba demanded that the jewelry be made right & Nothing is ever put through without 1st having Bubba's approval!
