This piece began as a long, wrap-style vintage necklace—once fluid, once complete, then broken and thinned by time. What remained was a skeleton of faux-gold chain and surviving bone-white and brass-toned elements, carrying the quiet elegance of another era and rebuilt it with intention.

The necklace now hangs in tiers, deliberately asymmetrical, its rhythm restored rather than replicated. The original vintage components anchor the piece with age and softness; the added green glass beads introduce a fresh pulse—like new growth threaded through old ground. The contrast is intentional: past and present stitched together, not pretending to be seamless.

This is not restoration for nostalgia’s sake.
It’s adaptation. Survival. Continuation.
Lightweight, fluid, and quietly striking, it layers beautifully or stands alone as a statement of reclaimed beauty.

Vintage faux gold with modern glass additions.
One of one.
Broken, then chosen.
