Recently I bought a necklace with 5 Shakudo panels. I'm going to put the panels separately on my postings. These are 2 smaller panels, as you can see the workmanship is superb. The cable surround on each of the panels is high grade gold, the clip at the the back is to link into the necklace. The panels are 2.4 cm in diameter. I shall put a link on below explaining the history of Shakudo.
Many thanks for looking

Unfortunately there is little information on the net. I hope the link above helps a little.

Hi Judy, I love Shakudo, the workmanship, the topics. I'm always on the look out but the prices can be extremely high, I was lucky with these.
