Delicate and Edgy
Just unboxed my Sora necklace. What a unique piece! I work in an engineering culture and I like structured clothing, geometric patterns, and an "architectural" style. An accessory like this, feminine with a bit of an edge, was a great find. I was also pleased to discover that it's so versatile, pairing well with a suit as well as a t-shirt and jeans.<br /><br />Because I'm petite I was worried about the weight of the necklace being overwhelming. However, the pendant is just the right heft. I bought the 18" chain and selected the design with four even spikes. It "sits" at a very flattering place, falling just below my collarbone. I'm pretty sure it will show up in my Zoom calls. (Yes, I'm vain!) Overall, the necklace was very well made.<br /><br />I have other brass jewelry and I really like the unconventional material. One thing to be aware of is that it may oxidize, but silver does the same thing. I was delighted to find a little brass cleaning kit included with my purchase! So long as you're not wearing it while bathing, working out, or sleeping, you shouldn't have any disappointments. And occasional maintenance -- even for a person as busy and overwhelmed as I am, as I'm often on-call -- is a snap.<br /><br />Finally, a note that buying from this seller was awesome. Wen communicated with me immediately after I made my purchase and it shipped right away. It also feels good to support female makers and to get something so unique in return.
