Necklaces

A round wood pendant with a channel of crushed natural stone set into the face. Pick your wood and your stone, and it hangs on an adjustable sterling silver chain. It has the warmth of wood with a real gemstone at the center.

Materials and craft

I cut each pendant from solid hardwood, carve the inlay channel, and fill it with crushed natural stone, then sand it flush and finish it by hand. Turquoise and lapis lazuli read bold and blue; opal and mother of pearl catch the light softly; green tourmaline adds a deep, earthy green. Every pendant is finished with food-safe oil and beeswax and made in my one-person studio 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 natural, grounding gift

The pairing of wood and real stone makes this a thoughtful gift for a fifth anniversary, a birthday, or anyone drawn to natural materials. Because both the wood grain and the stone vary, each pendant is one of a kind.

A slim vertical wood bar with a line of crushed natural stone set flush into the grain, on an adjustable sterling silver chain. It pairs the warmth of wood with a band of real gemstone color.

Materials and craft

One night sky, two pieces. I engrave the exact sky from the location, date, and time you choose onto a round olivewood pendant and a matching pair of Ascent drop earrings, cut from the same wood so the grain and tone line up.

How I personalize your set

• You give me a location, either a city or exact coordinates
• You give me a date and a time
• I send you a preview of your sky before I engrave anything
• Both pieces carry the same sky

What is included

• Pendant: Approximately 1 inch round olivewood pendant on an adjustable 18 to 20 inch sterling silver chain
• Earrings: Approximately 1.9 inch olivewood Ascent drops on sterling silver earwires
• Material: Solid olivewood with sterling silver findings, golden olive with natural dark grain
• Finish: Hand-finished with food-safe oil and beeswax
• Made to order: Cut and engraved after you approve your preview, ships in 5 to 7 business days
• Packaging: Arrives on a plantable seed paper card that grows wildflowers; add a gift box at checkout
• Made in: Hamilton, Ohio

Buying the set costs less than the two pieces separately. Olivewood is dense and heavily figured, so the grain running through your star chart is unique to your set.

Prefer a lighter wood? I can also make this set in maple. Message me and I will set it up.

Made for anniversaries, weddings, a new baby, a birthday, or a date you do not want to lose.

Some nights you never want to lose. Give me a date, a time, and a place, and I engrave the exact night sky from that moment onto a solid wood pendant, then send you a preview before I make anything. It hangs on a sterling silver chain, so the sky you remember goes with you instead of sitting in a drawer.

How I personalize your star map
