Dainty Sterling Silver Ghost Necklace: Handmade Halloween Charm

👻 BOO! This tiny ghost pendant is cute and playful, with smooth lines and a shiny finish! I wanted it to feel like a little talisman: sweet, whimsical, and easy to wear every day (especially fun around Halloween!). It comes paired with a .925 sterling silver chain of your choice.

🛠️ How do I make my jewelry?

I use the traditional technique of sandcasting! I create two halves of a mold with special oil-bonded sand that packs tightly and holds its shape at high temperatures. I melt the silver in a crucible with a torch and pour it into the mold. Once the piece comes out, I create the pendant loop, sand the pendant, add a patina, and finish with a mirror polish. 

🌿 Why does my metal work have dark recessed marks on the sides and back?

That’s part of the magic of sandcasting! Tiny spills where the mold halves meet or slight misalignments can create small recesses. I always polish the front carefully, but leave most marks on the sides and back on purpose. It saves precious metal and gives each piece that perfectly imperfect, handmade charm. 

⛓️ Why do my pendants always come with a chain?

Because I make most of the pendant loops myself, I want to be sure the chain fits perfectly. Your pendant arrives ready to wear — no surprises, no extra shopping needed.

💌 How do I ship my jewelry?

I send everything through La Poste with Lettre Suivie. It’s small, secure, and comes with a tracking number so you can follow your package until it reaches you.
