Australiana necklace - Down Under

Down Under is a unique necklace made of new and re-purposed buttons, which features five handmade polymer clay buttons. Starting with the map of Australia in the middle (apologies to Tasmania), the next buttons are two very cute (boy and girl) koalas. These three buttons were made by Liz Newman, a South Australian artist. Then there are two smaller buttons that have been made in the style of May Gibbs's gumnut babies.

This necklace would make a great gift for anyone who loves multi-coloured jewelry or who is looking for a unique Australiana gift.I always design my pieces so they are comfortable and easy to wear. The wire allows just enough movement so that it moves when you do, while all the components stay in place. I have used gold craft wire with a matching toggle clasp, that is easy to manipulate. It is very light and unlike some other button necklaces, the buttons go right around the neck. All button jewelry is designed and handmade with care and is ready to ship.

Materials:  Tarnish resistant craft wire, toggle clasp, polymer clay buttons, new and recycled buttons
