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.

Ok substitution for the value
Size: Single Slat, Color: Chrome
Bought these for my 2004 M3, quality is good, fitment is OK, some gaps around the edges but you cant tell unless you look very closely. About as expected for the cost.

Last about a year ishhh
Size: Single Slat, Color: Glossy Black&M-Color
Plastic mold isn’t as straight as it should be, the clips don’t line up like oem. Product is wiggly. Had on car for over half a year. Hasn’t faded. Just wish the fitment was better. Update: the grill lasted about 1 1/2 years, it began to fade, and I had a slat crack, no evidence of impact. I ended up buying a better made product and replaced this grill.

Fits a 2001 330!
Size: Single Slat, Color: Black, Size: Single Slat, Color: Black
The grill in my old 2001 330 broke off and I was really happy to find a nice looking replacement at an inexpensive cost. The black looks really sleek on it and has breathed some new life into it. Next up is to replace the emblem.
