Embrace the Imperfect Kintsugi Necklace

The Japanese tradition of kintsugi—meaning "golden joinery"—treats breakage and repair as part of an object's history, not something to hide. Inspired by this art form, Emilie Shapiro has crafted this sterling silver pendant, carefully sawn in half and fused back together with 14k gold, symbolizing strength, beauty, and transformation. Oxidized to enhance the contrast between silver and gold, this meaningful necklace serves as a wearable reminder that challenges shape us into something even more whole. Handcrafted from sterling silver, intentionally broken and repaired with 14k gold to create a striking contrast. Pendant measures ½"H x ⅜"W, delicately sized for everyday wear. Suspended from an 18"L chain. Includes a meaningful card explaining the symbolism of kintsugi. Handmade in New York by Emilie Shapiro and a team of female artisans.
