Sirocco necklace

Have you heard? Black is totally the new black. And this long, over-the-head necklace knows it.  Materials: African trade beads and hand-pounded brass accents on gunmetal finished bronze foxtail and oxidized raw brass chains. Measures approximately 30" around and slips over the head.  Betsy & Iya started in 2008 in a coffeeshop with a notebook, a bright red pencil, and nothing to lose. Among scribbles and coffee stains, the words “jewelry making” appeared in that notebook. Betsy & Iya are constantly learning, building, growing. They’re goofballs who can still work 80+ hour weeks, but know when to take a deep breath. Made by hand in Betsy & Iya's Portland, Oregon studio.
