Time Suspended

You don’t know what tiny is until you dismantle a time piece. Having to manipulate screws the thickness of a dog’s whisker and gears no bigger than a freckle, I now have a much deeper respect for the patience and skill of any watchmaker. This necklace is an assemblage of both watch and brass clock pieces from which hangs a filagreed gold locket all suspended on a length of brass chain. This particular piece was sold but similar versions are in production and soon to appear.
