Inspired by the layered twigs and grasses of caddis insect cases, this bronze pendant features softly burnished edges that shimmer like antique beadwork. Substantial yet lightweight for everyday wear, it hangs from an 18-inch 14ct gold-fill chain with a bolt ring clasp. Gold fill provides a durable, long-lasting alternative to gold plate or vermeil.
