This pendant is created by applying layers of enamel glaze onto a copper base, with each side repeatedly colored and fired. Exquisite, hand-cut sheets of silver foil, four times the usual thickness, are then fused within, resulting in a pendant with a minimalist design and a rich, vibrant color palette. Enamel Originating in Europe and gaining prominence in China during the Yuan and early Ming dynasties, enamel is a glass-like glaze. It involves applying this glaze to a metal surface, which is then fused and bonded through kiln firing, imbuing monochrome metal objects with brilliant, diverse hues. **[ Materials ]** ╬ Pendant: Copper, imported Japanese enamel powder, 99.99% pure silver foil, stainless steel (bail). ╬ Chain: Copper with baked white finish, copper with baked black finish, light brown leather cord. **[ Dimensions ]** ╬ Pendant: Length 5.5 x Width 2.9 x Thickness 0.2 cm (Total length including bail approx. 6.2 cm) Weight: 9 grams ╬ Chain (including bail): 1.

Please avoid strenuous or hazardous activities, striking, or bending while wearing to prevent scratches or damage from friction or impact. To clean, gently wipe with a slightly damp, soft cloth. ◆ Brass naturally oxidizes over time, developing a darker, aged patina. To prevent oxidation, we recommend wiping it clean and storing it in a sealed bag when not in use. To restore its luster: 1. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush with a small amount of toothpaste for cleaning. 2. Mix white vinegar and salt evenly, then use a cloth or toothbrush to gently scrub away oxidation, followed by rinsing with water and drying. 3. Apply brass polish (available at hardware stores) with a soft cloth and rub repeatedly to restore shine. ◆ Avoid wearing while bathing in hot springs or swimming. If the item becomes wet, dry it promptly. ◆ After wear, a quick wipe with a dry cloth removes surface dust from the leather cord, making daily cleaning effortless. **[ Important Notes ]** Please consider the following points carefully before making a purchase. 1.
