Nuimasu Recycled Leather & Wool Stitched Necklace - Black & Blue

  • Nuimasu Recycled Leather & Wool Stitched Necklace - Black & Blue by Mainichi

This design is another of our favourites by Melbourne-based designer Dearne Herrenberg. Consisting of five handstitched shapes, each one features a recycled blue leather centre with rings of blue stitching to fasten it to a contrasting, larger piece of black merino wool felt.
Assembled onto a length of black leather thonging, the overall shape is so pretty and would suit with a variety of different necklines.
The smallest piece of leather measures 3.5cm (1.4") wide and about 4.3cm (1.7") long and the largest about 4cm (1.6") wide and 5cm (2") long. The width of the cluster overall is about 12cm (4.7") fanned out and the leather thonging is 88cm (2' 9") long which gives you plenty of scope to wear this piece short as a choker or long as a pendant.
The materials used often inform the design and also reflect the philosophy behind the name (Mainichi translates from Japanese as "everyday").
Mainichi design inverts the concept of precious jewellery. There are no precious metals or jewels in these pieces, instead, unexpected, ordinary and everyday materials become pieces of wearable art.
