Description

The piece

This Steampunk inspired piece of fine jewelry is a reversible pendant with pocket watch movement. Its silver claws reminded us of birds of prey’s talons and we could not help but remember the shikra.

Due to the ease with it could be trained, the shikra was among the favourite falconers in India and Pakistan. The word shikra or shikara means ‘hunter’ in the Hindi language and was used in the French name Le Chicquera which was however given to another bird of prey, the Red-necked falcon, by Levaillant in 1799.

Description

Handmade sterling silver round pendant, with authentic Elgin pocket watch movement and sterling silver hoop with claws and double-ring bail.

Includes top quality hand braided leather necklace with sterling silver lobster clasp.

Dimensions

  • Length: 55 cm (21.65 in) approximately.
  • Pocket watch movement: 44 mm (1.73 in) diameter and 7.9 mm (0.31 in) width approximately.
