Ancient Lacquer. Rare Wood. Genuine Stone.

Ancient Lacquer. Rare Wood. Genuine Stone.

01. Wood: hardwood beads, hand-turned

Beads are hand-turned from hardwood and finished to show the grain. We do not claim restricted woods such as Hainan huanghuali unless a specific piece is documented as such.

02. Stone: Natural obsidian, unheated and untreated

A volcanic glass formed from rapidly cooled lava, left unheated and untreated to preserve its true color and clarity. Each bead is cut and polished by hand, so no two strands are exactly alike.

03. Finish: Traditional lacquer, Intangible Cultural Heritage craft

Applied using a centuries-old Chinese lacquer technique recognized as Intangible Cultural Heritage. The lacquer is brushed on in many thin layers, each cured before the next, sealing the wood without masking its grain.

04. Metal: Sterling silver / brass accents, hand-set

Clasps, spacers, and end caps are cast and hand-set in sterling silver or brass, chosen to complement the tone of each wood and stone pairing rather than compete with it.

05. Cord: Waxed linen, hand-knotted

Each bead is separated by a hand-tied knot rather than glue, so the strand flexes naturally with wear and a single loose bead never compromises the whole piece.

Notes from people who bought a piece

Sarah

Lighter than it looks

The sage green gourd necklace sits close to the collarbone and the lacquer is smoother in person. I wear it with plain shirts and it still reads as finished, not costume.

Michelle

The velvet holds its shape

Bought the Rong Hua hairpin as a gift. The petals are denser than photos suggest, and the color is richer. She wore it the same day.

Marcus

Clean knots, even beads

The lacquered bracelet arrived well packed. Beads are even, the cord is knotted cleanly, and it stays comfortable through a full day.

Elena

Slightly different, on purpose

The lacquer has small variations from piece to piece. That is what I wanted — it does not look stamped out.

David

Easy to actually wear

The gourd pendant is light enough that I forget it is on, which is the point. It has become the one I grab without thinking.

Victoria

Materials feel honest

Lacquer, wood, and stone, finished in a small batch. You can tell it was made by hand without anyone having to say so in the listing.
