The Butt is a collection of pendants made from the leftover end piece created during the sand-casting process. Normally, this piece is cut off and melted down for reuse. Instead, I powder-coat each one and turn it into a finished piece, giving new purpose to a part that is usually considered waste.
Material: sand-cast bronze, powder coating, pencil, sterling silver, leather cord
Chain Length: 20 1/2 inches (52cm)
Pendant size: 0.7×0.6×0.8 inches (1.8×1.7×2.2cm)
Sand-cast and powder-coated in the studio
Multiple powder coat layers with pencil and sanding marks; sealed with clear coat
Handmade sterling silver rivet and clasp
One-of-a-kind
