Silver Pendants on Cord
Why a cord instead of a chain
A cord carries weight that a chain of the same visual weight could not. It sits closer to the body, moves with it, and puts nothing metallic against the back of the neck.
Thirteen pendants here, from 4 to 80 grams. The heavy end of that range is exactly why the cord exists.
What these are made of
Every piece here joins carbon with silver — there is no all-silver pendant in this selection. That is a material decision, not an omission: carbon holds a large form at a mass the neck can carry all day.
Multi-layered matte carbon is ultralight, unafraid of water, unchanged by time. It is the counterweight to silver — silver is alive, it darkens and patinas, while carbon stays the same.
Materials joined
MOSAIC is the aesthetic of combining materials. In MOSAIC, carbon is joined with silver, with meteorite, with brass, with copper, with steel. Five pieces here carry it outright.
Across the selection: copper in five, steel in four, meteorite in three, brass in two.
Weight and how it wears
At 4 grams a pendant is barely present. At 80 it is an object you are aware of all day — and on a cord that awareness sits as weight on the chest rather than pressure on the neck.
Nine pieces carry EXPERIMENTAL from the LAB world; eight carry SIGNATURE ASYMMETRIC, the first form of the brand.
Care
Keep the cord dry — it is the part that ages fastest, and it is the part that can be replaced. Silver takes cloth or silver cleaner; carbon needs nothing. Take the piece off before the pool.
Frequently asked questions
Why a cord rather than a chain?
A cord carries more weight at the same visual scale, sits closer to the body and puts no metal against the back of the neck.
Are these silver or carbon?
Every piece here joins carbon with silver. Carbon holds a large form at a mass the neck can carry all day.
How heavy do they get?
From 4 to 80 grams. At the heavy end the weight sits on the chest rather than pressing on the neck - that is what the cord is for.
What is MOSAIC?
The aesthetic of combining materials: carbon joined with silver, meteorite, brass, copper or steel, set in a single plane.
Can the cord be replaced?
Yes, and it is the part that ages fastest. Keep it dry and it lasts considerably longer.
How do I clean a mixed piece?
Silver takes cloth or silver cleaner; carbon needs nothing. Keep liquid off the cord.
