Leather crocodile vintage pendant

Another lovely item has just been listed today on the Transylvanian Trove shop on Etsy. The leather pendant is crafted in the shape of a crocodile. This unique pendant is entirely handmade out of natural colored leather, created as to resemble a green crocodile with large red eyes. It is sold attached to a black leather cord. Like all pieces of jewelry made of natural leather, this item is light and warm against the skin, a pleasure to wear. Only one item available, ready to send, ready to wear.
Dimensions: 5.5 x 2 cm (2.1 x 0.7 inches).

This is a vintage item, but I remember its maker's explanations of how it was done. She collected colored leather second hand clothes and rolled together the desired pieces to form the shape of each animal, gluing each new leather to the previous ones. After the animal roll dried, she cut fine slices through it, revealing several identical shapes and the intricate colors inside.
