March of the Penguins showed us how these magnificent creatures live. This wonderful Empire Penguin with the chick balanced on his feet pin is hand painted on Sterling Silver. The Penguins Pin measures 1-1/2" tall by 1/2" wide.
How is the coloring done? After the piece has been hand cast, the sterling silver is sandblasted to produce a frosted white finish. A variety of oxidizing agents and inks are hand painted on to create the colorful effects. And finally the surface is sealed with an acrylic coating to protect it from tarnishing. Since each piece is hand painted please allow for slight variations in color tone and intensity.
As each piece is handcrafted, please allow 10 to 12 days before it will be available for shipping.
