Description
A textile lariat necklace inspired by the magic of the desert and natural stones – Handcrafted jewelry
The lariat necklace in Labradorite & Mica stone, a windswept desert, hues of ochre and ash, stone sculpted by time… This drape was born from the echo of these landscapes. At the moment of weaving, I felt this breath, this slow erosion which shapes and reveals, just as the elements do on bare rock.
Labradorite, with its hazy reflections, evokes the silence of a turbulent sky. Mica, on the other hand, sparkles like grains of light trapped in rock. Sandalwood and Kuka palm bring their warmth, like a discreet fire in the’the vastness of the desert.
A talisman For those who carry within them the mystery of forgotten lands and the strength of those who move forward. Even beneath the dust of ages!
Each lariat is designed with impeccable finish : no visible knots, beads meticulously selected one by one for the harmony of lines, and an innovative knotting system that makes it a unique piece of jewelry on the market.

How to care for your handcrafted wood and pearl necklace?
Caring for your necklace the way you care for yourself
Rest assured, ladies, caring for a wooden and gemstone necklace requires very little time! It is much more than just a piece of jewelry. It carries within it the memory of the carved wood, the energy of the stones that compose it, and the intention of the artisan who crafted it.

Wood, a living material
Wood softens and develops a patina when touched by the skin, but can also dry out if left untreated. Pearls, whether mineral or organic, absorb light and the environment, and deserve to be protected from external aggression. Caring for your necklace is not just about extending its life, it's also about respecting the material, honoring what is natural and allow it to flourish over time.
With a few simple gestures, you can accompany your jewel on its journey, giving it what it needs to endure the years with elegance and authenticity.

Visit Padouk wood is an exotic species renowned for its sturdiness, durability and an orange-red hue that changes over time. It has one notable feature: it sweat under the influence of heat and humidity. This "transpiration" corresponds to the exudation of natural resins contained in the wood.
Special features of Padouk wood
Why does Padouk sweat?
- Padouk is rich in resins and natural oils, which protect it from external aggressions (insects, fungi, humidity).
- When wood is exposed to rising temperatures or humidity, these substances rise to the surface in the form of micro-exudations.
- This is particularly visible on smooth or varnished surfaces, where exudation sometimes creates a sticky film.
How to care for Padouk wood
- Cleaning Regular: Wipe the surface with a soft, clean cloth to remove excess resin.
- Use of a degreaser Gentle: diluted spirit or vinegar can help remove resin without damaging the wood.
- Oiling (optional): A specific oil for exotic woods can help stabilize the surface and reduce rising.
- Sanding Light sanding if necessary: If the exudation becomes too significant, light sanding with an abrasive sponge can help open the pores of the wood and limit the phenomenon.
