Gold Dichroic Falling Skulls Pendant

Falling Skulls on sparkling gold dichroic glass.   

Dichroic glass is fascinating as it sparkles and each individual dichroic glass has a transmitted color and a completely different reflected color, as certain wavelengths of light either pass through or are reflected.

Dimensions: 1" x 1.125" with an 18" stainless steel chain.  

Artistic Process: Gold dichroic glass was made and then the shape was cut with a ring saw, the skulls were etched from the dichroic and then fire polished in the kiln.  

• Dichroic glass - Thin layers of metallic oxides, such as titanium, silicon, and magnesium are deposited upon the surface of the glass in a high temperature, vacuum furnace. This creates a brilliant coating on the glass that displays more than one color, especially when viewed from different angles.
