Horse Hair Jewelry Is A Unique Treasure

By Helga Stokes


Horse hair jewelry is sought after by those who experience a special connection with horses. There is an overwhelming sense of loss and grief experienced when a precious equine partner passes away and a treasure like this is a lovely way of remembering memories made together. These items may also be created for horse-lovers while the animal is still alive and this can make an original gift for a friend or family member.

A sample is taken from the tail for this beautiful jewelry as this is the easiest to work with. Bracelets, necklaces and key chains are just some of the items available. The sample is usually braided into a chain and this is used creatively in many different ways, adding gold or silver, precious stones, beads and crystals. Sometimes the sample in used in a resin toggle as a pendant on a silver or gold chain.

As many suppliers are lovers of horses, they understand the sensitivity of the task they are undertaking. They take great care with what they have been entrusted with. They are often prepared to customize items according to the special requirements of a customer.

It is possible to place orders with online suppliers. As there are many people offering this service, it is important to read online reviews to find out what other customers have experienced. Going online also offers the opportunity of looking carefully through all the choices offered, comparing prices and making an informed decision.

You are able to select from many different styles, all of which are displayed on the websites. For example, you may choose a necklace consisting of a horsehair chain with a pendant of a garnet, moonstone or silver heart. Alternatively, you may decide on a chain made of silver or gold and have the sample encased in a resin toggle.

Once you have selected a supplier, a sample from the tail will be requested. Do not worry if you do not know how much to collect or how long it should be as these instructions are given to you by the supplier. Of course, a necklace will require a longer sample than a key chain. The lock does not have to be very thick. It is simply bound with a rubber band and sent off to the supplier who then cleans it before making the jewelry.

Various details are requested on order forms. Apart from the usual basic details, you will often be requested to give some information about your animal too such as whether it has passed on or is still living. This helps to make the whole process more personal. For making of a bracelet, you will need to provide some measurements of the wrist size.

Horse hair jewelry provides a special memento to remember a beloved friend. It also makes an original gift for friends or family members who love horses. All that is required is a small sample and from this beautiful items can be produced that are affordable and can be worn for many years. This is a lovely tribute to an animal that has often shared the life of an owner for many memorable years.
