Butterfly necklace Orange/Yellow (new recycled acrylic)

This butterfly necklace was a little bit inspired by 70s style and features a recycled acrylic made from two orange coloured offcuts with copper foil running through it. The rest of the design features a customised frosted iridescent acrylic, frosted yellow, plain brown and orange mirror acrylic all backed onto 2mm white acrylic. Pieces that use recycled acrylic may be more limited in numbers than my usual range.

The design measures approximately 70(h)mm x 127mm(w) and hangs from a rose gold plated stainless steel chain which measures approximately 39cm with an extender chain measuring 7cm. 
There will be variation in the recycled acrylic; no two will look exactly the same and the iridescent acrylic may look slightly different between each piece too. It also looks yellow at one angle and then orange at another. All work is solely done by Rock The Panda designer and maker Ruth Anna Moore in Sheffield, United Kingdom.
The necklace has the Rock The Panda logo and year made engraved on the back and comes in it's own box. All Rock The Panda designs will be limited. They won't ever be mass produced.

About the recycled acrylic - 

I've kept all my acrylic offcuts since I started Rock The Panda back in 2018 as I knew that one day there would be a way to use them. That day has come! I'm now able to recycle acrylic into new sheets with heat, pressure, time and care. It's very exciting and means that my little business has become a lot more environmentally friendly.

Each new small sheet takes a long time to make; I can only really make 1 (about a 18cm square surface) sheet a day and they require a lot of attention to ensure that the result is properly fused together. It is a process I experimented with for a few weeks prior to getting a usable sheet!

Although a machine is involved in the making of the recycled acrylic and the new type is very similar looking to regular non recycled acrylic please bear in mind that there may be tiny surface marks, little dimples, varying thicknesses and occasionally raised areas around thin sections of the design (this doesn't happen often though).

Important Info -
Due to my works handmade nature and the fact that some of the acrylic sheet is handmade itself, there will be slight differences in each piece and may be minor imperfections.
Stainless steel is very resilient to tarnish but it may darken slightly over time.

Acrylic can be quite delicate. Handle with care, clean with a soft microfibre cloth and keep your brooch/necklace in the box provided when not being worn. Each piece is water resistant but not waterproof. Please don't immerse in water.
