Description

This boxed necklace, made from 51 individually cut pieces of gold coloured acrylic and essembled on the shape of the skeleton of a T-Rex, is inspired by the dinosaur at London's Natural History Museum. The skeleton is hand-threaded onto a nylon string along with gold coloured seed beads and finished with a gold coloured heart bearing the Tatty Devine brand name. The necklace is handmade in the Tatty Devine workhops in the UK and is reversible, so it can be worn facing either way.
