A juicy mixed up collection of recycled glass beads and charms create this wonderfully off-beat necklace. Dark and light coconut charms sparkle with a central swarovski crystal while the recycled brass charms have a gentle golden glow. The whole thing is finished off with sterling silver details. A bold piece that will not go un-noticed!
Necklace length approx 46cm. Largest bead dia approx 2.5cm, recycled brass leaf charm length approx 5cm.
This necklace illustrates all the skills and techniques of our skilled crafts people. No mass production here, some of the techniques used have been around for thousands of years!
To make these beautiful beads used glass is gathered from all over West Africa and is roughly ground down and individually reformed using clay molds fired in an earth kiln. Every bead is completely unique and all colours are produced purely from the original glass with no added chemicals.
The recycled brass is also from West Africa and comes from old plumbing fittings, collected and transformed using the ancient Asante Lost Wax Process. Each charm is first hand molded in bees wax giving evey piece it's own particular identity.
The coconut charms are hand crafted by a disabled group on the remote island of Rodrigues inthe Indian Ocean. Coconut is one of the very few resources in excess on the island and this craft unit offers valuable work to people with few opportunities.
All BeauCoco pieces can come gift wrapped in a pretty organza bag (which also contains the story of how all our jewellery is made) completely free of charge. Please see delivery on storefront.
We are happy to deliver direct to your intended recipient. Your personal message will be printed on to a gift note and included with the order. There will be no reference to the items value included. Select the "gift note" option at check out.

I would have found a photo of the necklace being worn useful, as it turned out to be a bit chunkier than I realised, although still fine.
