Jaku Necklace

Warm, tactile, and quietly striking — the Jaku Necklace pairs a hand-cast solid brass pendant with organic circle accents on a leather chain, the kind of piece that looks like it was found somewhere wonderful and worn ever since.

Each necklace is individually cast and assembled by skilled artisans in Kenya using raw, upcycled, and locally sourced materials, making every piece genuinely one of a kind.
