Juniper Berry | Turquoise Pinecone Necklace

Material & Craft
The pinecone necklace begins with a hand-carved wax model, translated into brass through lost-wax casting and refined by hand. Its aged surface forms an open branching cluster where turquoise, agate, jade, crystal and glass gather like small berries. A braided linen cord carries the pendant and its scattered blue-green beads. The warm finish is designed to deepen naturally with air, touch and wear; this evolving patina belongs to brass rather than indicating a flaw.

Wearing & Styling
The adjustable cord can sit near the collarbone or fall toward mid-chest, letting the pendant shift between a close botanical accent and a longer focal point. Wear it over wool, linen or a quiet high neckline, where the braided cord and mixed materials remain visible. As a long pendant necklace, it can be layered with a shorter, simpler chain while leaving enough space around the central cluster. Explore more handmade necklaces and gemstone jewelry.

About This Piece
Within The Herbalist collection, plants are not copied as decoration; their relationships are translated through material. Here, dry branching brass holds cooler blue-green stones and glass, letting warmth and clarity remain distinct. The result keeps juniper recognizable as a climate of colour and texture rather than a literal botanical replica.
