Ernie McElhannon transforms molten metal into wearable art with his handcrafted bismuth heart necklace. Bismuth is a rare element that undergoes a dramatic metamorphosis from liquid to solid. As it cools, the metal colors itself, creating vivid, iridescent patterns with stair-step and spiral structures that evoke the multidimensional nature of life itself. The result is a radiant heart-shaped pendant that symbolizes transformation, growth, and the beauty of not knowing exactly how things will turn out—but trusting they will be good.
- Each heart-shaped pendant is completely one-of-a-kind, with intricate textures and rainbow tones.
- Measures approximately 1"H and hangs from a sterling silver bail.
- Catches and reflects light from every angle for a mesmerizing effect.
- Symbolizes change, growth, and the beauty of embracing life’s unexpected paths.
- Handmade in Kentucky.
