Dragonfly in Memory | Sterling Silver Dragonfly Necklace

Material & Craft
This dragonfly necklace brings together S925 sterling silver, blue-green West Asian glass beads and silver-filled spacers. The oval pendant begins as a hand-carved wax model before lost-wax casting, then is refined and polished by hand. Its softly uneven edge and shallow dragonfly relief keep the trace of the making; the glass beads shift subtly in colour rather than forming a perfectly uniform line.

Wearing & Styling
The beaded strand rests at the collarbone, with the small silver medallion giving the colour a quiet centre. Worn alone, it reads as one clear blue-green line. In a layered arrangement, place it between a finer silver necklace and a longer cord or pendant so each length keeps its own space. Explore more handmade necklaces.

About This Piece
Dragonfly in Memory belongs to The Herbalist, a series that lets metal and gathered materials keep something of their original character. The composition is deliberately spare: a narrow oval, one raised insect and a measured sequence of irregular blue-green tones. Nothing is polished into perfect symmetry. The softly worked edge and changing bead colour give the necklace the quiet unevenness of something found rather than manufactured.
