UI-N52

Dozens of matte forest-green discs twist through the strands, filling the neckline in a dense, layered curve. A warm amber horn hook interrupts the composition at the top with a single glossy note.

  • Material: Wood and horn
  • Color: Green with amber horn
  • Length: 21 in
  • Closure: Horn hook
  • Origin: Philippines

The green shifts subtly disc to disc — forest, moss, deeper pine — so the surface reads as movement rather than a flat block of color. Wide across the collarbone, but light enough to sit easily on a plain crew or an open collar.
Details
  • Multi-strand twisted construction
  • Coin-shaped wood discs
  • Polished horn hook closure
  • Lightweight layered volume

Because the discs are cut from natural wood and the closure from natural horn, small differences in color, grain, and markings occur from piece to piece.

The Story

The format is specific to Filipino wood jewelry: dozens of thin strands, each carrying rows of coin-shaped discs, twisted and bundled at the ends so the whole piece reads as one wide collar rather than a single strand of beads. It's a construction built on the repetition of small, simple units.

The discs are cut from wood, sanded smooth, and dyed in small batches — which is why the green shifts slightly from disc to disc rather than reading as a uniform block, and why the strands' movement does most of the visual work.

The closure is carved from natural horn, a by-product of the country's livestock industry, shaped by hand into a hook and polished until glossy. Pairing dyed wood with polished horn is a common combination in the region: two renewable materials worked with different techniques within a single piece.

Craft & Care
  • Technique: Filipino wood and horn jewelry making

Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth. Keep away from water, perfume, and direct sunlight to protect the wood's color and the horn's polish.

Questions

Is this necklace heavy to wear?

It has real volume from the many strands, but wood is naturally lightweight, so it wears comfortably despite its scale.

How does it fasten, and can the length be adjusted?

A shaped horn hook catches over the opposite strands at the neckline. There is no adjustable chain, so the fit is fixed at approximately 21 in.

Will the color fade over time?

The wood discs are dyed, so gentle handling and keeping the piece away from water, lotion, and direct sun will help the color stay vibrant longer.

Are the discs and horn hook identical on every piece?

No. Because both wood and horn are natural materials worked and dyed by hand, small differences in color, grain, and markings are normal and part of the piece's character.

How should I store it?

Lay it flat in a soft pouch when not in use to keep the strands from tangling, and keep it away from water, perfume, and prolonged direct sunlight.
