Another iteration on this pendant concept. It's getting there, but still tweaking a bit.

Pendant v2 - the first version was too heavy.
Forged and twisted wrought iron with quartz crystal. Not quite where I want it to be, but this one was mostly to see if the setting would work.

More than 30 years ago, more than half my life, I walked through that door for the first time, and today I walked through it for probably the last.
