Cast in solid sterling silver from a real cedar sprig, this handcrafted necklace captures a fleeting piece of nature and preserves it in metal. A large faceted onyx briollette hangs from the centre, adding drama and movement to the organic form. The photos offer a glimpse into the transformation, from the original cedar model, carefully prepared for casting, to the finished pendant.

The cedar itself is no longer inside. During casting, the organic material is burned away and replaced entirely with molten silver, leaving behind every fine detail of the original form. The result is a durable, heirloom-quality piece of wearable nature.

Because of its size and longevity, cedar has long symbolized strength and eternity. Paired with onyx, often associated with grounding and protection, this piece is rooted in resilience. Like the tree it came from, this necklace is made to endure.

Available as a pendant on it's own or paired with a beautiful 18" sterling silver wheat chain for a ready-to-wear necklace.

This is a one-of-a-kind piece. Similar designs can be custom made with your choice of gemstone. See the Made to Order section below to create your own.

Made to Order!

As an independant maker, it's hard to keep every piece (in all sizes & colour variations) in stock at all times.
In the case that an item is not in stock, I am happy to make one to your specifications just for you!

Please contact me to let me know which piece you would like, as well as the size / colour variation, or any other requests you may have. I'll let you know the lead time you can expect (this can vary depending on my current projects) and get to the bench ASAP!
