Molded by hand using waste paper pulp and dried under the Southern African sun, the Nest Pendant lends a touch of nature to any space with its organic design inspired by hanging bird nests. The interior, hand painted in a golden hue, creates a warm glowing effect when the light is on.
Each Nest Pendant is made to order. Please allow 6 weeks for delivery. Due to the handmade nature, each piece varies slightly and has its own beauty.
