Wrapped Keum-Boo Pendant – Hand-Forged Fine Silver & 24ct Gold

A Sculptural Pendant for the New Season

The Wrapped Keum-Boo Pendant carries texture, contrast, and quiet strength. Each pendant begins with fine silver, hand-forged against basalt found near the workshop. The metal is rolled into a slender, cylindrical form, then finished with delicate layers of 24 ct gold leaf using Keum-Boo—the ancient Korean technique of bonding pure gold to silver. Finally, the surface is oxidised to reveal that rich black-and-gold contrast.

It’s strung on a plaited black cord with a matching bead formed in the very same way (fine silver, gold leaf, oxidised). You can slip it on without a second thought; it moves with the light, brings gentle rhythm to your look, and sits easily with what you love to wear.
