GBJ-N136

Nine soft-cornered squares — each slightly different, none quite symmetrical — link along a light chain into a broad, graduated shape that widens toward the center of the collarbone.

Material: Pewter-based alloy, silver-plated
Color: Silver
Length: 19.5 in
Width: 1.5 in at widest point
Origin: Türkiye

The plaques sit close across the front, catching light in soft matte planes rather than sharp reflections. Wide enough to carry a plain neckline on its own, quiet enough to wear alongside anything else silver.

Details

Graduated soft-cornered plaques

Chain extension at the back

Small variations in texture and outline from one plaque to the next come out of the hand-finishing process.

The Story

The design reads as one continuous shape rather than a repeating pattern. Nine plaques, each cast to a slightly different outline, are strung in a graduated line so the piece tapers up to a broad center and back down again — irregular in the parts, resolved as a whole.

Working a pewter-based alloy rather than solid silver is what lets the piece wear at full width without weight. The silver plating gives it the depth of a heavier metal; the hand-finished surface keeps it from reading as machine-uniform.

Each plaque is cast individually, then worked by hand to bring up the soft, uneven texture across the face. That surface is what makes the light behave differently panel to panel — no two catch the same way.

Craft & Care

Technique: Cast and hand-textured alloy metalwork

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear and store dry, away from moisture, to protect the silver plating.

Questions

Is this sterling silver?

No — it is a pewter-based alloy with silver plating, which gives the look and weight of solid silver at a lighter, more accessible build.

Will the plating wear or tarnish?

Like most plated metal, it can dull with heavy wear or moisture exposure. Wiping it down after wear and storing it dry keeps the finish looking its best for longer.

Why does the texture look slightly different on each plaque?

Each plaque is cast and hand-finished individually, so small variations in texture and outline are part of the process, not a flaw.

How long is the necklace?

19.5 in overall, which sits just below the collarbone on most people rather than tight at the throat.

Where is it made?

Handcrafted in Türkiye, where the alloy is cast, textured, and assembled into the finished piece.
