This star-shaped pendant is inspired by the foraminifera Baculogypsina, a single-celled marine organism with a calcium-containing shell. This creature provides the whimsical star-shaped shells of the star sand beaches of Japan. Whereas some species of Baculogypsina are extinct and can be found in pre-Cambrian fossil layers, other species of this genus still populate our oceans. Baculogypsina was drawn by Ernst Haeckel as a perfectly symmetrical 5-pointed star, but in nature these creatures usually have a jaunty, irregular shape, often with more than 5 points.

The pendant is 2 cm (0.8 inches) in diameter below the loop.

The pendant is 3D printed in 14K gold plated brass, 14K rose gold plated brass, or sterling silver, finished with a 45 cm/18 inch long gold plated silver, rose gold plated silver chain, or silver chain to match*, and is ready for gift giving with a gift box, polishing cloth, and care instructions. 

*While a 45 cm/18 inch fits most, other chain lengths are available. At checkout, write a note indicating your preference.

All jewelry ships free of charge from the Ontogenie workshop in Germany. If you live outside of the EU, you may be charged customs or import fees.

T-Shirts, mugs, and art prints ship free and directly from where they are printed, usually a printing company close to your location.
