Three strands of hammered, pebble-shaped beads pool into a heavy dark-gray drape, anchored at each shoulder by a trapezoid cone etched with chevron and diamond lines.

  • Material: Aluminum
  • Color: Dark gray
  • Length: 21.5 in
  • Closure: Hook clasp
  • Origin: India

The beads sit high on the collarbone and the strands cascade in tight, staggered rows, so the volume reads sculptural rather than heavy. Aluminum keeps the weight low for the scale, and the aged finish shifts between graphite and near-black as the light moves across each irregular bead.

Details
  • Triple-strand construction
  • Hand-engraved triangular cone accents
  • Hammered pebble-shaped beads
  • Aged patina finish
  • Hook clasp

Each necklace is finished by hand, so slight variations in bead shape, texture and tone are part of the piece.

The Story

The etched cones at the shoulders draw on a decorative vocabulary found in handcrafted Indian metalwork, where chevrons and diamonds are cut into the surface with fine chisels and punches rather than cast or stamped. Each line is placed freehand.

The deep gray finish comes from deliberately oxidizing and antiquing the aluminum, borrowing the weight and depth of older, well-worn silver at a fraction of the mass.

Stringing beads across multiple strands to build scale and drape is a familiar approach in South Asian metal jewelry, where volume and texture — not precious materials — are what give a piece its presence.

Craft & Care
  • Technique: Hand-engraved, oxidized aluminum metalwork

Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth and store away from moisture and perfume to protect the aged finish.

Questions

Is it heavy to wear?

Aluminum is a lightweight metal, so the necklace wears more comfortably than its scale suggests.

Why do the beads look slightly different from one another?

Each bead is hand-shaped and hand-finished, so minor differences in size, texture and tone are part of the piece.

How do I clean and store it?

Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear and store it flat or hanging, away from moisture, perfume and direct sunlight, to preserve the aged finish.

What kind of clasp does it have?

A simple hook clasp set into the beaded strand at the back of the neck.
