Pendant approximately L 1 1/4” x W 1 1/4“ x D 1/2“

Carved in 2023.

Note from the Artist: Mushrooms have many powerful meanings. Growing up, my grandmother would take me into the woods near her house in Northern California. There, she taught me how to identify and responsibly harvest wild mushrooms.

Every fall, her and I still venture into the woods and visit our secret sweet spots to collect the delicate fungi together. My first carving ever was a design of three little mushrooms, paying tribute to this wonderful fungi and to her: my teacher, critic and precious matriarch.

The Cord: This piece is strung on a polyester/nylon blend cord with hand-carved beads of the same jade, that slide to adjust cord length. The length range of this cord is about 15-30,” but this varies, so please call us if you need your cord to be specifically tailored to you at no extra charge.

This pendant comes with a complimentary cord repair/replacement for life! You only pay for the shipping to get it to us - we will do the work and ship it back for free!

All elements of this creative process are unique to each individual piece. All processes performed by us are done so by hand, with the aid and precision of electric hand tools… Please expect variation, as these products are 100% one-of-a-kind works of art.
