Pendant Depicting Skeletan Hand

Silver skeleton hand dangles from a polished bail, fingers splayed.

This sterling silver pendant depicting a skeleton hand is from the United States, and is contemporary. Silver is soft enough to be cast in fine detail, which suits subjects such as hands, where small joints and bones can be shown. Petite pendant made in the form of a hand with long, bony fingers and visible joints, openwork between them. The silver is bright and textured, with dark detail in the hollows. A shiny bail loops at the wrist. It is 0.5 inches long, 0.25 deep and 1.25 high.

Cheery bones, ready to wave from a chain.
