Designed and handcrafted by Lorien Menhennett at Fusion, a Chicago-area studio, each stunning, original pendant captures the brilliant colors and intricate design of stained glass while remaining light enough to wear around your neck.
Embellishments include sterling silver wire, beads and other found objects, such as postage stamps, china saucers and seashells from Martha’s Vineyard.
Formerly a newspaper and magazine editor, in the last several years Lorien has shifted her focus from the literary to the visual arts, developing a synergy between the crafts of stained glass and jewelry-making. The result is a striking union of materials and mediums, of functionality and fashion.
Call or e-mail to inquire about pricing and availability. Custom orders are also welcome.
