This pendant is created from a naturally shed porcupine quill, meaning no adorable porcupines were harmed in making of these earrings. The quills have been sealed to endure wear and the sharp end has been blunted by a permanent cap. A pyrite accents the piece. This is a fierce and sexy every-day piece that is also astoundingly lightweight. Gold-fill quatrefoil charm. Please note that since the quills are an organic material, the color and size of each quill will vary to some degree. 20 inch chain
