Buma Necklace

Sculptural and grounded, the Buma Necklace centers on a single hand-cast organic brass form — the kind of pendant with just enough presence to anchor an outfit without trying to take it over.

Strung on a leather cord with a brass toggle closure, it wears with an easy, natural weight that feels deliberate and unhurried — hallmarks of something genuinely made by hand.

CARE

Brass may naturally oxidize or tarnish over time. To help preserve its natural shine, gently clean with brass polish and a soft cloth.

STYLED BY LADDER

The organic brass form and leather cord pair naturally with relaxed, textural dressing — try it over a linen button-down left open, or worn close to the neck with a simple cotton tee.
