Medium Pointed Teardrop Cactus Necklace with Gemstone
Jewelry handmade from dried prickly pear cactus fiber. Each piece is made with a solid metal copy of an actual section of cactus fiber.
This handmade pointed teardrop pendant is made from actual Prickly Pear cactus skeletons (skeleton closeup shown), and is set with a faceted gemstone. Using the lost wax casting process, each piece starts with a carefully selected section of Prickly Pear cactus skeleton.
London Blue Topaz and Rhodolite Garnet are in stock. Gemstone is 3mm in diameter. If you'd prefer a different gemstone or gem size, contact me for options. Discounts do not apply to gemstones other than London Blue Topaz and Rhodolite Garnet.

Jewelry made from the desert
Each cactus piece is handmade using a lost wax casting process.
First, I carefully select a section of prickly pear cactus skeleton. That skeleton is molded, then silver or gold is poured into the mold. The result is a solid metal replica of the cactus skeleton, which is then made into a piece of desert-inspired jewelry.
Each eco-friendly piece uses 100% recycled sterling silver or gold.
artisan made
Hi, I'm Clare, owner and maker of Lila Clare Jewelry. I make each piece of jewelry from the actual dried fibrous skeleton of the prickly pear cactus, resulting in artisan jewelry made in and from the southwestern desert. I have been making these unique jewelry pieces from the cactus skeleton since 2010.
