Emerald Heart Pendant
by Thomas McPhee Sculptor
Necklace: 16" | Pendant: 23.5mm x 26.3mm x 7.6mm

Handcrafted with extraordinary precision, Thomas McPhee's Emerald Heart Pendant is an exquisite, limited-edition art piece.

Carved from wax, cast in kiln-fired crystal glass, and measuring 23.5mm x 26.3mm x 7.6mm, this pendant rests on a 16-inch 2mm black rubber cord with a sterling silver clasp.

Drawing on the ancient technique of pâte de verre, an intricate formula for lead crystal glass, this piece features an intricate pattern reminiscent of fine gemstones, like amethyst, sapphire, tourmaline, or emerald. Infused with the spirit of avant-garde art glass, the Emerald Heart Pendant is a rare luxury.

“I want my carvings to feel as though they’ve always existed—only now revealed.”

Sculptor Thomas McPhee

Thomas McPhee is a Canadian sculptor renowned for his masterful gemstone carvings and kiln-cast glass sculptures. Largely self-taught, he refined his skills by studying European museum collections and developing his own techniques in the early 1980s. Working in precious and semi-precious gems, McPhee combines classical realism with mythic and archetypal themes, creating small-scale works collected worldwide.

Artist Statement

“The source of my inspiration in using gemstones as a primary vehicle for expression lies in their intrinsic qualities—permanence, beauty, purity, and inner light. These materials allow me to pursue a highly refined perfection of form, creating objects that feel timeless rather than transient. Whether working in precious stones or cast glass, I aim to carve sculptures that transcend the here and now and suggest a hopeful sense of the eternal.”
