This is not a real seahorse, but it is just as detailed. This seahorse has prized Ethiopian Opals as eyes. The electroforming process has captured and brought out every little detail of this adorable creature, while sealing the resin cast seahorse in a protective layer of copper. Designed by Mermaid Raven, then electroformed in pure copper and hand oxidized for a beautiful aged look.

 

  • 4 inches tall by 1.5 inches wide.
  • Comes with 18 inch copper chain and metal beads.
  • One of a kind, hand made by Mermaid Raven. 
  • Pure Copper electroformed and oxidized by hand.

 Opals are a hardened silica gel with tiny microscopic pores containing 5-10% water. They have been desired for jewelry making throughout history and are one of the most prized of the precious gemstones. Opals name is derived from the Roman word “opalus” meaning “precious stone.”

Jewelry Care
It is recommended that you remove your jewelry prior to sleeping, bathing, exercising, or cleaning with chemicals. Each piece has been sealed with a non-toxic jewelry lacquer. You may gently clean your piece with mild soap and water but never use chemicals or other types of cleaners because this can damage the gemstones and remove the patina on the piece. Jewelry should be stored away from natural sunlight and heat in a protective jewelry box (like the one provided). 

SAFETY/ALLERGY **All of our Jewelry is Nickel-Free**
Copper is a low-allergic metal and should cause no harm during contact with your skin. If you have had copper allergic reactions in the past, avoid copper jewelry.  If you have any concerns about your health and wearing copper, consult your doctor.
