Walnut
Sourced from reclaimed cabinetry wood, this Walnut Necklace piece was crafted from the very first wood donation received by Found & Found, marking the beginning of a journey dedicated to sustainability and artistry. The wood was donated by a skilled craftsman and owner of a cabinet company in Hollister, CA who takes joy in seeing the woods he works with take on new and unexpected forms. This walnut once served a functional purpose in fine woodworking but has now been transformed into a wearable work of art.
The black walnut scraps from his cabinetry business were once destined to be discarded, but Found & Found recognized their potential. Through gem-cut precision, each piece is carefully shaped to accentuate the wood’s natural transitions, ensuring that no two necklaces are ever alike. The result is a stunning and dynamic pendant, celebrating the full range of walnut’s depth and warmth.
Typically cherished for its dark, rich veneer, walnut is prized in furniture, musical instruments, and sculpture. Here, its full spectrum of color is revealed—from deep espresso tones to golden highlights, creating a natural ombré effect that feels almost surreal.
Finished with Rubio Monocoat, a plant-based, food-safe oil, this necklace maintains the wood’s organic beauty while enhancing its durability. The wood gems are suspended from a durable braided leather cord, with an adjustable length of 10 to 20 inches, allowing for effortless styling. Weighing just 4oz, it is lightweight yet visually striking, perfect for those who appreciate both refinement and raw, natural beauty. Its smooth, fine texture ensures a luxurious feel, making it a pleasure to wear.
The Walnut Necklace is a piece of history, a symbol of transformation, and a love letter to sustainability. Once part of a cabinet, now a cherished keepsake, it embodies the idea that beauty can be found in unexpected places. This necklace is a reminder that every material, like every person, has a story worth preserving.
