DNA Helix pendant to inspire those who are interested in biology, genetics or science in general.
DNA or Deoxyribonucleic acid is the blueprint of all life on earth as we know it. Each rung or base pair is part of the instructions that describe how all organisms look and function. A very interesting subject and the foundation of genetics.
I personally designed every aspect of the pendant then send it to a 3D printing partner. My design is made by 3D printing a wax mold which is used to cast the brass. The model is then plated with 14k rose gold, 14k gold, or rhodium (silver color). Full details and care instructions buy are on the manufacturers website. Please observe care practices associated with plated jewelry.

Optional necklace is made with 1mm diameter black cotton cord and a brass magnetic clasp. The clasp is coated to match the color of the pendant. The necklace cord and clasp is bought from a 3rd party but measured, cut and tied by me.
The pendant eye for a necklace is a tight 4mm diameter. Select "0 inch" if you would like to use your own necklace. That will save me material since I won't need to send one!
