In the last Anatomy of post I shared what goes into the World Map Necklace. The tiny gold Michigan is much less complicated but it’s still fun to look at the parts of the whole.

I start out by hand cutting the tiny Michigan out of 14K gold fill. Next it get’s hammered and then I drill the tiny hole for the jump ring. After that I hand sand all the edges (very carefully since it’s so small) before tumbling it to smooth the edges and make it super shiny.

Finally a jump ring is added and it’s hung on the chain. Then I put it on because Michigan is my home state and I can’t get enough. This is actually the one I where almost every single day!
