the story
The Tiny Amsterdam house pendants are my little tribute to the beautiful city of Amsterdam. I love this town, it's small enough to cycle it from point to point in only 40min, but big enough to embrace people from 170 nationalities... eclectic, forward-thinking, cool and at the same time super "gezellig" (cozy) and historical with houses which were built up to back in the 1500s. No matter the crazy weather or a hard day, looking at the pretty houses spread throughout the city always lifts my spirit.
My Tiny Amsterdam collection wouldn't be complete without a miniature windmill, of course! This round-based windmill features a door, a pair of windows, and hexagonal middle floor, and a sail that can turn.
how it's made
I've made the model of this windmill completely by hand by traditional silversmithing techniques. Then, I cast it in 925 Silver in small batches and finish it by hand. (Also available in 14kt by request).
dimensions
Windmill size: .25"x.25"x.35" (6x6x9mm). It is *REALLY TINY*, about the size of my pinky fingernail.
Chain length: ~18" (45cm) - If you need a different length just let me know!
materials
Solid Sterling Silver (925)
