FAQs

Which wooden or wicker pendants to choose according to the desired style?

Wooden pendants with geometric shapes are perfect for contemporary and minimalist creations. Woven wicker or rattan designs are particularly suitable for bohemian and summer jewelry, and for pieces with a seaside inspiration. Round and organic shapes bring softness and naturalness, while more graphic shapes allow for the creation of modern and structured jewelry.

What's the difference between a wooden pendant and a wicker pendant?

Wood generally offers a smooth and uniform surface that highlights the natural shapes and finishes of the material. Wicker and rattan, on the other hand, have a woven and textured appearance that adds more dimension and a handcrafted feel, highly appreciated in bohemian designs. Both materials are lightweight but offer very different visual results.

What beads should I pair with wood or wicker pendants?

Wood and wicker pendants pair perfectly with mother-of-pearl beads, seashells, wooden beads, sea bamboo, natural stones such as landscape jasper, moss agate, tiger's eye, sunstone, and freshwater pearls. Cotton, leather, or natural fiber cords also help to reinforce the authentic and natural spirit of the creation.
