Skimming Stone Necklace

A flat, smooth sterling silver pebble threaded on a fine sterling silver box chain — worn close to the base of the throat, it sits as naturally as a stone found by a river.

Made in Louise Douglas's Nelson studio using the lost wax casting technique, the pebble is hand-carved in wax before being cast in sterling silver and hand-finished to a polished surface. The chain threads directly through the pebble rather than hanging from a bail, allowing it to slide freely and sit flat against the skin. Simple, considered, and made to be worn every day.

ABOUT the MAKER

Louise Douglas

Louise Douglas works from her studio in Nelson, New Zealand, casting jewellery directly from the natural world — seashells, twigs, leaves, found objects — and from a deep affection for the particular and the remembered. Her pieces are small-batch, made by hand using the lost wax casting technique, and finished in oxidised sterling silver, solid gold, and freshwater pearl. The collection spans botanical drop earrings and delicate necklaces through to bangles and rings — each piece rooted in the same making process, the same sensibility. There is nothing generic in Louise's work. Every form has a source: something picked up on a walk, something held onto. The jewellery carries that quality with it.
