I remember getting this necklace at a church bazaar in Cranbrook when I was about 8 years old. I loved it instantly. It reminded me of a card game we had where your goal was to get the right cards to build your creatures body. There is four sides to this necklace, a mermaid, a body builder man, a raggedy anne type girl, and some sort of unusual ostrich. They are divided into 3 parts that all twist around so that you can mix up their bodies. Hours of entertainment. I would love to know more about this necklace but so far my queries have turned up no information. If anyone knows anything about this necklace please let me know.
I have one as well, my father gave it to me when I was younger. I do not know where it came from but he told me that it was a sailor’s necklace. Mine looks identical except the chain for it is long gone. Mine is on a leather cord instead. It’s been in my possession since at least the mid-90s.
Did you ever find anything about it? There are no artist marks that I can discern.
Hi Valerie,
No I still haven’t found out anything about it. I’ve asked a lot of people and no one has ever seen one like it before. I would love to see a picture of yours! I love that there is another one out there! If you can email it to me info at pkkdesign dot com or post it to my facebook page https://www.facebook.com/pkkdesign that would be fantastic!

Hi Crystal 🙂
Thanks so much for visiting my jewellery story land! My apologies for the slow reply, I’ve been slowly getting back to business in the new year. I love hearing that other people owned this necklace as well! I still haven’t found out any details on who made them. If you ever dig yours up I would love to see a picture and share it on my blog.
All the best,
Patsy

THE STORES WERE LIKE TARGET AND WAL-MART & K-MART THATS ALL THE INFO I HAVE
