Joie de Vivre jewelry

A jean jacket is more than an article of clothing; it is a style on its own. Some jackets are edgy, with motorcyle inspired elements, and others are cool, with unique wear patterns and embroidered elements. Some say classic style like dark denium in a boxy shape with rivet buttons; others scream "80s!" with acid washed everything and bubble gum pink accents. Whatever the style, a jean jacket is instant, easy attitude and even better - comfortable! This necklace celebrates the classic jacket, maybe one of the first jean jackets, with homegrown pride in simple red, white and blue. The 1" heart pendant is stamped Hill Tribe silver, a fine grade silver crafted by metalsmiths of the Karen Hill Tribes in Thailand, and it's secured with a sterling silver hook & eye clasp. This makes a great gift for anyone who might enjoy a simple American classic!

Cost: $44.00 USD

Length: necklace - 18"

Materials:

  • Czech glass beads
  • Japanese glass seedbeads
  • Hill Tribe silver heart pendant
  • sterling silver hook & eye clasp
  • Power Pro moderate duty braided Spectra Fiber™ cord (30 lb. load test)

Care & cleaning: Beading cord may be kinked or broken through hard jerks or severed through prolonged exposure to rough or sharp edges; store necklace flat when not in use to prevent stretching or kinking cord. Clean with warm soapy water and avoid chemical or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft jewelry polishing cloth to clean tarnish appearing on silver.

The beading cord is strong and should be robust to toddler tugs and pulls, but care should be taken because the sterling silver beadtips securing the cord to the clasp can be bent or broken with sustained pulling. As with all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.
