Red Star Manta, pendant and chain *This unique piece is finished and ready to be shipped.*

*This unique piece is finished and ready to be shipped.*

The smallest member of the manta ray family. These tiny, star shaped, creatures are rarely seen, but friendly and inquisitive once they are encountered.
On still, moonlit, tropical seas they can sometimes be spotted playing in the wake of small boats, where they feed exclusively on phosphorescent plankton.

This lifelike, gold vermeil model is 2cm, a little over three quarters of an inch long. It has a red patina on its back, rose tinted gills and two natural, cabochon cut garnets.

Each charm is a piece of genuine gold vermeil sculpture, made using sterling silver with a minimum 2.5 micron coating of 22ct gold.
The charm is strung on a 50cm, or 20" chain, made to the same ‘vermeil’ standard.
The 22ct gold used to coat these pieces was obtained from a Fairmined Gold authorised supplier.

No two of these creatures are ever quite the same.
Each creature was designed, assembled and painstakingly, hand-finished in our Sussex workshops. It will arrive in a neat, metal box with its own chain and a certificate of authenticity.
