Frequently Asked Questions


What is Keum-Boo?
Keum-Boo is an ancient Korean gilding technique used to fuse 24ct gold foil to the surface of silver. Unlike gold plating, this creates a permanent, molecular bond between the metals.

How do I care for the oxidised finish?
The dark, smoky patina is a surface treatment that will naturally "mellow" and brighten over time where it touches your skin. This evolution is part of the piece’s unique character. To preserve the finish, avoid chemical cleaners or ultrasonic baths.

Is this necklace adjustable?
The standard length is approximately 49.5cm, sitting just below the collarbone. As each piece is made to order in my Auckland studio, I can adjust the cord length upon request—simply get in touch before ordering.

Will it look exactly like the photo?
Because each bead is hand-built and the gold is applied by hand, no two necklaces are identical. Your piece will be a unique variation of the design shown, carrying its own distinct textures.

 

Style & Inspiration

This is not a necklace you buy because you need a necklace. You buy it because you want to wear something that carries real making in it — something that took time, skill, and intention. The contrast of oxidised silver and warm 24ct gold is quiet but striking. It sits beautifully at the collarbone and works as well with a linen shirt as it does with something dressed up. It’s the kind of piece people ask about.

A significant birthday. A personal milestone. A gift to yourself after something hard or something wonderful. It’s also a considered wedding gift, an anniversary piece, or a way to mark a new chapter. Because every necklace is unique — no two are identical — it carries the weight of a one-of-a-kind object without the price of a commission.

At 49.5cm, this necklace sits at or just below the collarbone on most necklines — a versatile length that works with open necklines, crew necks, and everything in between. If you’d prefer a different length, get in touch. The hand-plaited cord is lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear. The beads have presence without being heavy. This is a necklace you’ll reach for often.

Difficult assembly, doesn’t fold well, looks good fully open
Color: Grey, Size: B-88''W-4 Panel
The instructions for this divider are very inadequate. After having to redo parts of the assembly, I have finally assembled it. The divider itself seems very nice when it is fully open, however it is not possible to fold it well as all the bars with the wheels go in various directions making it impossible to fold it neatly. And it has a large footprint. It is possible that I did not assemble it fully well because of the lack of adequate instructions. I am not even sure if I will keep it because I need to fold out of the way when nothing in use.

Slightly challenging build
Color: Beige, Size: A-88''W-4 Panel
This was my second screen set I've purchased, first of this style. Not the easiest to assemble. Lots of pulling and tugging; not a highlight in my day.

Commercial grade divider suitable for many needs
Color: Beige, Size: A-132''W-6 Panel
This item will be used at a future event where we need to separate a single locker room into two large areas, without any construction. This divider is perfect for the job because the partitions can be 1 to 6 panels and it will roll into place. When the event is over, the divider will fold/roll away and the locker room will return to its original design. The unit is very heavy, which will ensure that it is sturdy and stable. All the components arrived, wrapped in plastic to prevent damage. The screen material is a woven polyester in a cream color that will occlude any visibility but it may be possible to see shadows on the opposite side. The height is about 6ft, which would require a very tall person to "peep over" the divider. I needed a quality unit for this project and the frame, screens, and mobility will meet the needs. The divider is not the same as the small decorative dividers -- it is more of a commercial grade product, yet tasteful. If you want/need a small divider as an accent piece, this is not the best choice. This item could be used in a medical office, treatment/massage room, to divide an office room into two, or block a hallway in a building.

Great option for a professional looking backdrop
Color: Black, Size: B-102''-3 Panel
I decided to try these wall dividers for my home office space since it does not have a door. I wanted to have my video calls without the rest of the room in the feed to give it a more professional feel. These being on castors make them super easy to move into position and roll off to the side when not in use. They are stable, much more than the folding screens I have tried in the past. That they are connected by the middle piece and not the top/bottom of each other allows you to adjust the positioning to your needs. Overall, this did exactly what I needed and was an affordable option. I also like that they are highly portable: if you want to take them for a booth or event, the poles all disassemble into manageable lengths that easily fit in a car and take very little time to set up again. The only thing I would change is to include a bag to store them in for transportation.
