rockets into roses


i just received this pendant from israel. it was created by an israeli blacksmith who transformed the remains of a kassam rocket that landed in israel into a beautiful pendant. when i was about to put it on i hesitated. at that point it hit me that the pendant i was about to adorn was once part of a weapon of destruction. i realized this when i ordered it, but i didn't think i would have these thoughts when i was about to put it on.
after a moment i realized that this pendant has been transformed and is now a pendant meant for adornment and that part of  the proceeds from this pendant will be helping  build shelters to keep israelis safe.  not too shabby.
i am hoping that this pendant will be of the very limited edition kind.
