The O A K B A R N E C K L A C E is a delicate accent that's easy to outfit with.
The necklace features a hand cut and shaped bar made from oak wood. The oak pendant is gilded on the front and back with shiny copper leaf. The lariat is made with a dainty light apricot high strength cord (35lb breaking strength).
The minimal cord slips through a small solid copper circle allowing the necklace to open to it's widest to be slipped on over the head. The necklace is held in place at it's shorter length by two faceted beads, or it can be worn long by slipping the circle past the beads (wearing as a choker).

Every industrial metal element is coated by hand with a jewelry grade sealer to prevent interaction with your skin or discoloration/oxidization. These metals may slightly patina naturally over time, and that process is intentional. Highlighting these metals is a key feature in the Makerware line and allows each piece to be truly unique.
Each piece is made by hand, slight variations are possible, making each individual piece special.
This hand-built necklace is part of Makerware: a minimally inspired product line envisioned by DUOFAB // taking the raw materials we use as makers, and reinventing them as everyday objects.
