Wenge
The Wenge Necklace is a bold yet understated piece, crafted from a rare and storied hardwood. This deep black wood, salvaged from an abandoned pallet in Wisconsin, has been waiting since the 1970s for its chance to shine. Now, decades later, it has been meticulously shaped into a wearable work of art. With its rich texture and natural contrast, this necklace embodies both strength and elegance, offering a grounding presence to its wearer.
Wenge is renowned for its dramatic coloration, featuring a dark, near-black tone that is unexpectedly streaked with light brown highlights. This organic contrast creates a dynamic, textured appearance, making every piece truly one of a kind. The wood’s natural stability and density further enhance its timeless appeal, giving it a quiet resilience that reflects its long history. This is a wood that stands the test of time, both in durability and in style.
To preserve and enhance its natural beauty, the Wenge Necklace is finished with Rubio Monocoat, a plant-based, food-safe oil, ensuring a smooth and refined texture. It is strung on a durable braided leather cord, allowing for an adjustable length of 10 to 20 inches to suit your preferred fit. Weighing just 4oz, it is light enough for everyday wear yet substantial enough to make an impact.
The Wenge Necklace is a piece of history, reclaimed and reimagined. Whether worn as a symbol of endurance, a connection to nature, or simply for its refined aesthetic, this necklace brings a story of patience, beauty, and transformation to life.
