One of my favorite times of day is right at dusk, when the sky is settling in for the night and our little brown bats sneak out to dance against that dimming backdrop. I can’t remember ever seeing one dart out of the corner of my eye without instinctively saying, “A bat!”
They feel like brown-winged secrets, dependably popping out of their hidden places to remind us that a whole world is awakening just as we’re heading to bed. They have a way of linking us to the mystery of childhood, when the idea of a vibrant, nighttime world unfolding outside our windows felt as magical as the fairy tales we drifted off to.
A single bat can eat up to 1,200 mosquito-sized insects in an hour, a vital part of our Louisiana food chain for sure. Beyond their role in keeping balance around us, they keep us in wide-eyed wonder as the only flying mammals left today.
This pendant measures approximately 1" tall x 5/8" wide, including the bail.
*The price listed above is for the pendant only. If you choose to add a chain, the updated total will be reflected in your cart.
Made by hand in our South Louisiana studio. Each piece varies slightly due to its handmade nature.
*Note: Sterling Silver and 14K Gold prices may vary due to fluctuation in the gold and silver markets.
Bronze first: Our bronze is a solid copper + tin alloy, lead free. Copper can react with the natural acids, sweat, and moisture in your skin. Some people may see a harmless green or blue mark. Others never do. It can even vary day to day based on humidity, activity, or hydration. This is normal and not a quality issue.
Tarnish & patina: Bronze darkens over time, just like sterling silver. That "dirty" look is natural oxidation (patina), not damage. A quick polish brings back a warm glow similar to 14k gold at a fraction of the cost. The trade off is a bit of maintenance.
Quick prevention tips:
• Remove before washing hands, swimming, showering, or heavy sweating.
• Dry well after wear.
• Apply a thin coat of clear nail polish or jewelry wax to the inside that touches skin if you are sensitive.
• Polish as needed with a treated jewelry cloth or gentle metal polish.
Want a lower-maintenance option? Many styles are also available in sterling silver or gold. Contact us and we will help you swap or upgrade.
