Product Description
Hematite Bead Necklace with Medallion from the Dominican Republic has a circumference of 17". The pendant measures 2.25" x 1.4". Eduardo is an amazing metal artist, making everything from tiny earrings to chandeliers and sculptures. As a young man, a local artist took him under his wing and sent him to study at a workshop in the city where he grew up. He now has his own small workshop that supports his wife and teenage son. He has created a place for young students to learn the craft as was done for him. He hopes to someday have a larger workshop to help even more of the youth living on the streets, giving them the opportunity for a more stable future that a vocation can offer.
