Chakte Viga (Orangeheart)

A horizontal wood bar with a fine line of metal inlaid across it, hung from two points on a sterling silver chain so it sits level and centered. Choose your wood and whether the inlay is sterling silver or brass.

Materials and craft

I cut each bar from solid hardwood, rout a channel, and inlay the metal by hand so it finishes flush with the grain. The two-point sterling silver chain keeps the bar horizontal and steady. Every piece is sanded smooth, sealed with food-safe oil and beeswax, and made in my one-person studio in Hamilton, Ohio.

Details

• Pendant: horizontal wood bar, approximately 2 inches wide
• Inlay: your choice of sterling silver or brass, set into the wood
• Wood: nine options, Canarywood, Cedar, Cherry, Maple, Olivewood, Orangeheart, Purpleheart, Redheart, Walnut
• Chain: sterling silver, hung from two points so the bar sits level
• Finish: food-safe oil and beeswax
• Made to order: cut and finished after you order, ships in 3 to 5 business days
• Packaging: ships on a plantable seed paper card; add a gift box at checkout and it still ships on the seed paper
• Made in: Hamilton, Ohio

Care

Keep it dry when you can and wipe it with a soft cloth. If the wood looks dry over time, refresh it with a drop of food-safe mineral oil or my Wood Butter.

A wood anniversary keepsake

Wood is the traditional fifth-anniversary gift, and the clean horizontal line of wood and metal makes this an easy, modern one to give. Because each wood has its own grain, no two bars are exactly alike.

A matched wood set with real personality. This bundle pairs my Art Deco wood earrings with a wood bar necklace with a metal inlay drop, two grainy, handmade pieces that wear well together for everyday or as a gift.

Materials and craft

I cut every piece from solid hardwood, inlay the necklace bar by hand, and finish each one with food-safe oil and beeswax. Pick your earring wood, your necklace base wood, and whether the necklace inlay is sterling silver or brass. Made in my one-person studio in Hamilton, Ohio.

Buying the set costs less than the two pieces separately. Because every wood has its own grain, no two sets look exactly alike, which makes this an easy anniversary, birthday, or thank-you gift.

Gives back: Every order plants 2 trees, recovers 6 ocean-bound plastic bottles, and protects 20 bees through Greenspark.

Small, warm, and a little fierce. I cut this flame-shaped stud from solid hardwood and set it on a hypoallergenic sterling silver post, so it stays light enough for every day but catches the eye up close.

The wood is sustainably sourced, and the grain runs differently through every pair.

Details

• Style: Flame-shaped wood stud
• Size: About 1/2 in by 1/2 in
• Wood: Choose from maple, walnut, cedar, olivewood, purpleheart, canarywood, or chakte kok, each with natural grain variation
• Posts: Solid sterling silver, hypoallergenic and nickel-free
• Finish: Hand-finished with food-safe oil and beeswax
• Made to order: Ships in 3 to 5 business days
• Packaging: Arrives on a plantable seed paper card that grows wildflowers; add a gift box at checkout
• Made in: Hamilton, Ohio

Care: Keep them dry, skip the shower and pool, and refresh the wood now and then with a drop of food-safe mineral oil or wood butter.

Light, everyday, and a little bold, they make a simple anniversary, birthday, or thank-you gift for someone with an edge.

Gives back: Every order plants 2 trees, recovers 6 ocean-bound plastic bottles, and protects 20 bees through Greenspark.
