This “one of a kind” vintage assemblage necklace features an upcycled gold filled pocket watch that no longer worked so I applied a transfer (Michelangelo Hand of God) to the porcelain face, added some vintage watch movement parts and sealed the top with jewelry grade resin. The back of the watch is quite lovely with a beautifully detailed embossed design. I’ve hung this watch pendant from a Victorian watch pin which has a hook located on the back side. If desired, the pocket watch can be removed and the necklace can be worn without the watch pendant or you could hang a pendant of your choosing.
