Gourd Art Skull Pendant Necklace

 

Gourd art skull necklace.
With this gourd art necklace, I pay homage to the Latin holiday, Dia de los Muertos or Day of the Dead. Celebrated on November 1st and 2nd each year, this joyous holiday is a time to remember and honor those who have left this life. Typical Dia de los Muertos activities include building altars to the deceased, cleaning and decorating grave sites, special food, parades and parties.

This necklace is made of gourd, brass, plastic flower with rhinestone, leather, acrylic paint and polycrylic sealant; hand fabricated, hand painted and sealed. Measurements: Pendant: 1-7/8 x 1-1/2 x 1/4 inches; Leather cord: 18 inches. Inventory No.: 3633.
