Multi-Strand Bone & Bead Statement Necklace :
Multi-Strand Bone & Bead Statement Necklace

Bring together texture, craftsmanship, and layered elegance with our Multi-Strand Bone & Bead Statement Necklace. This piece is handmade in South Africa combining ethically sourced cow bone beads and carefully selected plastic beads, resulting in a layered, sculptural form that moves gracefully and speaks of cultural resonance.

✨ Product Features & Details

• Materials: Ethically sourced cow bone beads + durable plastic beads

• Design: Multi-strand layering (several bead “threads” running together)

• Length: Approx. 35 cm

• Unique Character: Because it is handcrafted, you may notice small variations, slight asymmetries, and artisanal marks — these are not flaws but proof of its handmade nature

🏡 Interior Decor & Styling as Art Objects

This necklace transcends fashion — it works beautifully as an interior accent in curated homes:

• Drape over stacked books or art tomes on a coffee table shelf — the layers introduce sculptural rhythm

• Loop over decorative objects like vases, urns or matte ceramics — let the strands cascade and soften hard edges

• Place on a tray or in a shallow bowl as a textural element in a living room vignette

• Pair with neutral tones — think linen, jute, raw timber, rattan, or woven textiles — to anchor the bead/ bone contrast

• Mix with other natural objects such as coral, carved wood, or clay pieces for a global, layered look

• Hang vertically or suspend as a sculptural wall accent (for example, over a small hook or stand)

Why This Piece Belongs in Your Collection

If your design philosophy blends tactile materials, handcrafted expression, and global motifs, this necklace is a natural fit. Whether worn or styled as decor, it adds a layered statement, cultural texture, and a nod to artisanal storytelling — ideals that align beautifully with Mahlia Interiors’ vision of soulful, globally influenced living.

Care & Display Tips

• Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth

• Avoid water or chemical cleaners (especially on the bone parts)

• Keep out of direct sunlight to protect the bone and beads

• Store flat or loosely coiled to maintain strand integrity

Inlay Handmade Pieces 
As with all things made by hand, these pieces are all unique and small flaws may be present, which adds to the intrinsic character and beauty of each piece. 

Care Instructions ​ 
Wipe your bone or mother of pearl inlay with a slightly damp cloth. If the finish becomes dull over time, apply a small amount of coconut oil and white wax, then buff with a dry cloth. 

Avoid regular household cleaners, as they can damage inlay surfaces. 

Because bone and MOP are naturally porous, high-use items (like coffee tables) should be sealed before use. A clear varnish or polyurethane from any hardware store works well. Made-to-order pieces can be pre-sealed on request for a small additional cost. 

With frequent use (e.g., trays or drawers), the natural expansion and contraction of wood and bone can occasionally loosen small pieces. If this occurs, simply reattach with all-fix or super glue.
