Antique Shakudo Bird Pendant of 14k Gold

Shakudo is a Japanese mixed metal technique that wherein an alloy of copper and gold is treated to give it a dark black patina.

This shakudo pendant was created from an antique sword ornament (circa 1900). The piece features a shakudo bird that our jeweler expertly backed in 14k gold with a 14k gold bail.

The pendant measures 1.35 inches from the top of the bail to bottom by 0.8 inches wide, and it is in great condition. We are providing the option to purchase the pendant or without the 17 inch, 10k gold chain depicted in the photos.
