I had something in mind like an antique mourning necklace and this is what happened so far. I might try a smaller pendant as well, like the crow talon earrings I have 🖤

°Pure silver crow foot with faceted black tourmaline°

~This claw pendant is respectfully made in pure silver (pmc) from a crow which had passed away naturally. I made a mold of the feet, this pendant is pure silver. (99.9% as opposed to sterling, 92.5%. It is work-hardened by tumbling for strength and shine 💎)

The Gruesome Truth Behind Victorian Mourning Jewelry

In the days of Queen Victoria, mourning the dead was a somber and elaborate affair. One such macabre practice involved the creation of mourning jewelry, often incorporating locks of hair from the deceased. These eerie mementos were worn by the grieving as a way to keep their loved ones close, even in death. Rings, brooches, and necklaces adorned with braided hair, sometimes even set behind glass, served as a constant reminder of mortality, the transience of life, and the ever-present shadow of death.

Since ancient times, doves have long been symbols of the soul ascending to heaven, and have been depicted on tombs and burial monuments. In ancient Greece, doves were associated with the goddess of love, Aphrodite; in Rome, with her Roman equivalent, Venus. In Celtic and Slavic folklore, they represented the peaceful passing of the dead. This lovely Georgian stickpin features 2 doves (symbolizing love and devotion) atop an unbroken monument (symbolizing eternity). A wonderful reminder of love.
