April 24, 2025Handmade pendant: art and emotion
In a world where mass production dominates the shop windows, betting on a handmade pendant is choosing authenticity, detail, and emotion. These pieces are not just accessories; they are small works of art that convey the soul of the person who creates them. At Bennu Santana, each handmade pendant It is born from an intimate, technical, and meaningful process. Behind every shape, every pigment, and every layer of resin, there is a story worth telling.
The soul of the handmade pendant: the technique behind the emotion
The creation of a handmade pendant At Bennu Santana, everything begins with one essential element: inspiration. We don't rely on industrial molds or repetitive patterns. Each piece is designed individually, as if for the first time. This approach allows each pendant to have a unique character, an unrepeatable color palette, and an energy that connects directly with the wearer.
The technique used combines fluid art with epoxy resin, an artistic process that allows pigments to expand and blend naturally, generating dynamic abstract patterns. This method, while seemingly simple at first glance, requires color mastery, knowledge of curing times, and an artistic sensibility that only comes with experience.
In Bennu Santana's studio, high-quality pigments, professional resins, and carefully selected bases are used. The process includes layered pouring, color movement control with air and heat, and the final encapsulation that protects and enhances each design. This creates a handmade pendant with visual depth, brightness and resistance.

Each handmade pendant is unique because it is born from a manual and conscious process
Unlike industrial pendants that are reproduced by the thousands, in Bennu Santana each handmade pendant It passes through the artist's hands at every stage. From color mixing to final sanding, there are no automatisms: just hand tools, patience, and attention to detail.
The design is constructed step by step. First, the metal base is chosen, which can be stainless steel or a nickel-free alloy, ensuring durability and comfort. Then, the resin and pigment mixture is prepared and poured onto the base using specific techniques to achieve abstract visual effects. In that instant, controlled chance takes place: the magical moment where creativity flows and is captured in the piece.
After drying and curing, the finish is polished or varnished, depending on the design. The result is a handmade pendant which is not only beautiful to look at, but also to the touch, with a soft texture and harmonious shape.
This process cannot be repeated exactly the same way twice. That's why each Bennu Santana pendant is unique. And that's where its value lies: in being a piece of jewelry made to highlight the uniqueness of the person who chooses it.

The emotional value of the handmade pendant: a story in each piece
Beyond the technique and materials, what differentiates a handmade pendant It's the story inside. Many people look for an accessory that represents their personality, their emotional state, or a special stage in their life. A handmade pendant has the potential to be that symbol.
At Bennu Santana, pieces are created that connect with emotions. From colorful pendants that represent joy and vitality to softer, more ethereal compositions that convey calm and reflection.

"What does it mean?" It's a conversation born from art, a connection between people through an object charged with meaning.
