Hartlepool goldsmith thrilled with sale of Johnny Depp pendant
A goldsmith from Hartlepool said he was delighted to see a pendant he made being worn by Johnny Depp.
Mark Lloyd said he initially thought it was a wind-up when someone called him asking to personalise a necklace for the Hollywood star.
He said a friend of Mr Depps bought the Ankh design from Mr Lloyds Dune range for the actor and musicians 60th birthday.
Mr Lloyds friend took pictures of Mr Depp wearing the pendant at a gig.
The master goldsmith, who has had a shop in Hartlepool for 23 years, said a woman contacted his shop asking if he could customise a pendant by adding the initials JD on the back.
He said when he asked what that stood for he was told Johnny Depp, which he said he thought was a wind-up.
He sent the engraved pendant and got an email back to say Mr Depp loved it, Mr Lloyd said.
It was a strange feeling, Mr Lloyd said, but added I could see why it was a good fit for him, it goes with everything else he was wearing.
Ive seen a few pictures now of him wearing it so he must love it.
He said it had taken a while to sink in, adding You think a superstar is wearing a piece of my jewellery, so yeah that is special.
