What is the difference between a family and a world at STRUGA?

A world is the wider territory a form belongs to: CODEX, RITUAL, LAB. A family is a specific line inside it: BLADE and Signature Heart sit in CODEX; AMULET, CARBON and MOSAIC in RITUAL; FUSED and EXPERIMENTAL in LAB. The necklace collection draws its pendants from all of them.

Is Living Silver the same as oxidized silver?

No. Living Silver is a property of unplated 925 sterling silver: without rhodium, the metal darkens on its own through wear and time. Oxidation is a technique that blackens a form at the bench, before it ever reaches you. STRUGA works with the living property, so a necklace deepens as you wear it rather than arriving pre-darkened.

Will the darkening on a silver necklace wash off, and does it count as damage?

No. Patina is 925 sterling silver reacting naturally over time — a record of wear, not a flaw. It settles into recesses and along the edges you touch most, marking how the form is worn. It is built into unplated 925 sterling silver and part of how a STRUGA necklace is meant to age.

How is a MOSAIC pendant different from an AMULET pendant?

MOSAIC gathers several materials into one pendant — meteorite, carbon, copper, steel — as a single composition. AMULET is built around raw, uncut stones, each one its own; no two repeat. Both live in the RITUAL world, but one is a mosaic of materials and the other is an amulet carrying a single stone.

Which necklace should I choose to represent the whole brand?

If you want one form that tells the whole STRUGA story, it is usually a necklace — the form that carries the brand on the chest. Signature Asymmetric is the brand's first silhouette, made to hang on a chain, and Signature Heart is the Dual Heart as a pendant.

About this section

The piece that carries the brand on the chest.

Necklaces — STRUGA's largest category, where eight families converge: SIGNATURE ASYMMETRIC, SIGNATURE HEART, BLADE, MOSAIC, CARBON, AMULET, FUSED, EXPERIMENTAL.
Material: sterling silver 925. Living Silver — the metal darkens on its own (a property), which is not the same as oxidising (a technique applied at once).
MOSAIC combines meteorite, carbon, copper and steel in one pendant; AMULET carries raw stones, each unique and never repeated.
CARBON pendants come in six in-house palettes, each on a braided cord. FUSED and EXPERIMENTAL are small runs and LAB one-offs.
Patina is a map of wear, not a defect.

Eight families converge in the largest category of STRUGA. The form that tells the story in a single object.

SIGNATURE ASYMMETRIC — the first silhouette of the brand, meant to hang on a chain. SIGNATURE HEART — the Dual Heart as a pendant. BLADE — chain links split and rejoined, scaled to the neck. MOSAIC — multiple materials in a single pendant: meteorite, carbon, copper, steel. CARBON — ultralight pendants in six in-house palettes, each on a braided cord. AMULET — pendants and amulets with raw stones of wild growth; each stone is unique, none repeats. FUSED — molten silver, a handful of references. EXPERIMENTAL — LAB one-offs.

If you need a single piece that tells everything about STRUGA — most often it is a necklace.
