Made from a real caterpillar specimen, this pendant is a piece that represents growth and change (and also it just looks cool).

If sold out, find made to order caterpillars here.

Starting with a naturally deceased dried caterpillar, the first mold gave me a baseline to work from. Specimens like this will naturally sink in a bit as they dry so I shot wax in the first mold, sculpted out the sunken areas to make them look nice and juicy again, and repaired the areas where the legs hadn’t taken to the mold correctly. Then another mold was made of that finished wax and that’s what I’m using to make these pieces!

Approximately 1.5” tall. Weight: approximately 17 DWT. Vermeil has 3 microns of 14k plating over sterling silver.

You can add a chain here if desired. I also have these new thick chains that look really good with chunky jewelry like this. (I know, because I’m wearing the gold caterpillar on one of these thick chains at this exact moment of making this listing.)
