Pressed Hydrangea Crescent Necklace| Hydrangea Flower Impression Necklace| Botanical Impression Jewelry
A gently curved crescent holds the memory of a hydrangea bloom — three or four petals rising from the base, reaching upward and off center, as if the flower itself chose where to land.Each of these handmade botanical necklaces is pressed from a real hydrangea bloom, capturing the layered texture and quiet detail of the flower in metal.
Hand-applied patina deepens the impression, drawing out every vein and petal edge against a satin finish. The result is something earthy and alive — rustic in the best sense, with the kind of honest, handcrafted character that only comes from working slowly with real materials.
Lightweight and thoughtfully crafted, this nature inspired necklace rests gracefully at the neckline, offering a wearable piece of botanical art that feels effortless yet distinctive. Each necklace is one of a kind, with slight variations that reflect the natural beauty of the bloom itself.
A beautiful floral jewelry gift for the woman who loves nature, texture, and pieces that tell a story.

Sterling silver, Gold, and Jeweler's Brass
Brass Pieces will develop a deep gold patina over time. Sterling silver will develop a black patina. To remove this you can use a jewelry polishing cloth like Sunshine Polishing cloths.
Gold pieces may be cleaned with a soft cotton cloth only - we do not recommend cleaning with commercial cleaners.
Storage
Keeping your jewelry away from moisture and storing it in a cool dry place will slow the tarnishing process. Your jewelry came with a 1' anti- tarnish tab. You can use this in your jewelry box to help absorb moisture.
Gemstones
The use of commercial products is not recommended for cleaning any of the gemstones in the Athena Bandit jewelry collection. You may clean stones using a soft cloth and mild, lukewarm soapy water. Some stones, such as Coral, Spiny Oyster Shell, Opals, Jade, Turquoise, and Pearls are delicate and should be cleaned using a soft cloth only. Using any products on these stones may harm them.
