The Story
True conservation demands attention, and this piece is built to command it. Merging electronic remnants with natural history, this 32-inch statement necklace anchors our wearable conservation collection with a striking, narrative-driven palette. At its heart is an intricate arrangement of authentic American river otter vertebrae, meticulously cleaned and preserved to a stark, clean white.
These vertebrae are salvaged and integrated directly into the internal electric wiring harvested from a discarded printer cable. The design loops the tightly twisted black, white, and turquoise insulated cables directly through the natural architecture of the otter bones. This necklace is designed to be a heavy-hitting conversation starter, turning industrial waste and natural mortality into an unforgettable visual statement.
The raw osteology is balanced by a calculated sequence of smooth, earth-toned wooden accents. Woven through the structured three-strand cable base, the design features a mix of flat disk and rounded barrel wood beads nested between the white vertebrae. It secures comfortably at the neck with a durable, low-profile silver-tone lobster clasp.
The Composition
The Osteology: Authentic, hand-cleaned, and preserved American river otter vertebrae.
The Tech Component: Three high-quality internal insulated electric cable strands salvaged from a discarded printer, featuring a distinct palette of turquoise, black, and white.
The Accents: A calculated sequence of earth-toned organic wood beads, including flat disk and rounded barrel shapes, systematically nested between the bones.
The Closure: A durable, silver-tone lobster clasp secured with professional cord crimp ends for a clean, secure finish.
Style, Size & Wear
Designed with a classic, fixed-length drape, this piece measures 32 inches in total loop length to frame the chest perfectly as a bold centerpiece. The contrasting textures of the smooth, matte-finish wood beads, the slick vinyl insulation of the twisted computer wires, and the complex, architectural surfaces of the otter bones give it a compelling, tactile feel. It wears beautifully as a daily talisman or as an avant-garde artistic statement.
