This sterling silver pendant is part of Kirsten’s Corner Signature Collection and was molded from an actual wishbone. I made this pendant because wishbones remind me of my mom, who would always save the wishbone when we had roasted chicken or turkey for dinner. She would dry them out so my brother and I could pull them apart and make a wish. I remember how exciting it was to pull the bone apart and hope that I ended up with the longer piece so that my wish would come true.
Though the tradition is popular in the United States, the history of wishbones actually originates with the Ancient Etruscans, who believed birds were oracles. They would hold the dried “fercula” (collar bones) in their hands while making wishes. The tradition carried over to Ancient Rome, where the lucky bones were in such demand that people began breaking them in half; the phrases “lucky break” and “can’t catch a break” can be traced back to the Ancient Romans. The tradition was passed down through England, and then the United States, where it remains a beloved Thanksgiving ritual.
This pendant is anatomically accurate, as I created the mold by using the fercula of a Cornish hen, which has a smaller size perfect for a pendant. I sanded and gesso-ed the bone, and carved a hole at the top to create a bail. Our jeweler rendered the wishbone in sterling silver and textured the silver to make it reminiscent of bone. The pendant makes a perfect talisman for hope and optimism, and for dreams and wishes coming true. Or if a wishbone brings back childhood memories, like it does for me, it can be worn as a loving reminder of our favorite relatives.
The pendant measures 1 11/16” x 7/8” and weighs 2.55 grams. The opening of the bail is 6.3 x 4.6 mm. Unmarked; acid tests as sterling silver.

Good value for the money.
Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: Beige
Comfortable right out of the box. Great style and well made. The more you wear the softer they get but maintain their overall appearance.

Comfortable fit for slip-in fabric shoes
Size: 14, Color: Black/Black
My first experience with Marc Joseph. I typically purchase dress and casual work shoes from Florsheim and occasionally Rockport. I'm giving these four stars because the initial fit and feel appear solid. Depending on the shoe brand I wear a size 14 or 15. My feet are slightly wide but I don't alway need wide fit. These size 14 fit well with wide enough toe box. I've tried slip in shoes before and they just don't feel right. These somehow work and there is no heel slip. My only reservation is the high lip on the heel for slip-in and hope they dont catch pant hems. I gave 4 stars because I'll have to determine durability. Granted they are a light fabric shoe with a soft rubber tread. I'd like them to last for at least 6 months..and use them for business casual work wear during warm weather.
