Ccchu Necklaces

Hong Kong-based designers create ornamental statement pieces with pompoms and tassels

The husband-and-wife team behind the eco-friendly clothing line Ccchu, Ching Ching and Michael Chu, continue their exploration of what they describe on their Facebook page as “alternative ways of designing” with their recent collection of statement necklaces.

The limited series of unique necklaces combines brightly-colored pompoms with massive tassels for a variety of bold pieces for those looking to make a statement. Their pièce de résistance, however, has to be the front-and-back necklace that fits around the bodice like a delicate harness, held together with a fine steel cable. But one crucial element of Ccchu’s appeal lies in how each of the adventurous strands is still easy to wear, and versatile enough for many different wardrobe styles.

Based in Hong Kong, Ccchu jewelry sells online through London’s Darkroom store for £100-300 (about $171-480).

Painter Irene Wood makes abstract works exploring growth, displacement and decay. But when it came to the Seattle-based artist’s first serious jewelry collection, inspired by accessories of ancient Greco-Roman, Egyptian and African royalty, she delved into wearable art with a much brighter perspective.

Strands of geometric beads come in eye-popping primary hues, natural wood, stone finishes, metallic and clear plastic, in both monochromatic and multi-colored combinations. Called “History and Industry,” the big and bold accessories maintain tasteful simplicity in spite of their size, making the substantial pieces easily wearable. Materials—painted wood, vintage acrylic, quartz and India stone—figures importantly in these handmade necklaces, providing a warmth not often seen in costume jewelry.

The necklaces, which fall within a nicely-priced $120-200 range, sell through Irene Wood online or Etsy.
