Petite Bloody Mouse Necklace

These mouse necklaces are inspired by the neighborhood cats I'd see passing through my back yard with birds or mice hanging from their mouths. The pendants feature a mixture of red beads spilling out from the enameled mouse heads, adding movement and beauty while also depicting blood embellished with tiny pearl "maggots".

*I hand-paint each individual piece of my jewelry with enamel. The pearls and stones I use are natural and thus each one is slightly unique in shape and tone. With these things in mind, please understand each pendant may have slight differences from the one pictured.
