Sanskriti Wooden Jewellery Set – Joined Boxwood & Ebony Striped Bar Earrings with Bib Necklace

• Sold as: one pair of earrings and one bib necklace
• Woods: Ebony and Boxwood, both responsibly repurposed
• Construction: strips of Ebony and Boxwood joined edge to edge, then shaped into bars — the stripe runs right through the wood
• Earrings: a single striped bar on a hook, without the Boxwood round used on the earrings sold separately
• Necklace: striped bars linked with metal rings in rows stepping outward from the centre, with a plain Ebony drop at the lowest point
• Cord: cotton thread, adjustable — a sliding cotton bead sets the length
• Colour: natural Boxwood cream and Ebony black; no dye, stain or paint
• Findings: metal alloy hooks and metal rings
• Earrings weight: 10 g the pair
• Made in: India, from responsibly repurposed exotic hardwoods, handcrafted by skilled artisans

• Put the set on after perfume, makeup and skincare have settled — a bib sits exactly where perfume is usually heaviest
• Remove it before bathing, swimming or exercising. Moisture is what stresses a join over time, and cotton thread holds damp longer than wood does
• Wipe the wood gently with a soft, dry cloth after each wear
• Store flat in the box or pouch provided, away from moisture, heat and direct sunlight — laying a bib flat keeps the rows from tangling
• Handle by the metal findings and the cord rather than the wooden bars

One pair of earrings and one bib necklace. Both are built from the same joined Ebony and Boxwood striped bars.

One that spreads across the upper chest rather than hanging as a single pendant — rows of elements stepping outward from the centre so the piece widens as it descends, sitting against the skin like a bib. It is worn as the statement of an outfit, not alongside another necklace.

Not quite. The Sanskriti Wooden Earrings sold on their own have a small plain Boxwood round above the striped bar. The earrings in this set are the bar alone, so they sit quieter beside the bib necklace.

Joined. Separate strips of Ebony and Boxwood are bonded edge to edge and each bar is then shaped from the block, so the black runs all the way through the wood rather than sitting on the surface. Nothing is printed, painted or dyed.

Inlay cuts a channel into a solid piece and sets a strip of another wood into it, so the base stays whole and the lines can be very fine. Joining bonds separate pieces edge to edge and shapes the result as one object, giving broader bands that run right through. Both are skilled; they fail in different places — an inlay at the channel walls, a join at the seam.

Yes. A cotton bead slides along the cord that passes through it, so you set the length yourself and it holds. On a bib that is worth having — the piece needs to sit at the right height to lie flat rather than stand away from the chest.

Cotton thread, not leather. The adjuster is a cotton bead as well.

Solid Ebony, plain and unstriped. It is the only element in the necklace that does not carry the pattern, which is what lets it close the piece rather than extend it.

Yes. The black is Ebony and the cream is Boxwood — two different woods rather than one wood in two finishes. Nothing is dyed, stained or painted.

Culture. A column with vertical lines running down it is among the oldest decorative ideas in architecture, Indian and otherwise.

Far less than it looks. A bib of this size in metal or stone would be a considerable weight on the neck; in Boxwood and Ebony the scale is visual rather than physical. The earrings are 10 g the pair, which is the same reason a bar of that length stays comfortable all day.

Not with ordinary wear. A properly prepared joint in dense hardwood is as strong as the surrounding wood. What stresses any join over time is moisture, which is the main reason to keep wooden jewellery dry.

Please avoid it. Take the set off before bathing, swimming or exercising. If it does get damp, dry it with a soft cloth straight away and let it air fully before storing — the cotton cord takes longer to dry than the wood does.

Metal alloy — hooks on the earrings and rings linking the bars of the necklace. The wood itself is bare Ebony and Boxwood with no plating or coating. If your skin reacts easily to metal, please write to us before ordering and we will help you decide.

Yes, and the plain bar is the easier of the two to wear on an ordinary day. The bib is the piece you put on when it is going to be the statement of the outfit.

Very well, with a plain blouse and an open neckline. Black and cream hold up against handloom, khadi, linen and cotton in indigo, rust, mustard and black. What a bib does not want is a worked or embroidered neckline underneath it — the two compete and both lose.

The design will match. The grain and the exact width of each stripe will vary, because Ebony and Boxwood differ from board to board — and across a necklace of many bars that variation is more visible, not less. It is what tells you the piece is wood rather than moulded material.
