About the Item

This sculptural necklace in silver and blue acrylic is titled Iguana, a name that brings to mind the graceful curve and crest-like form of the reptile. The pendant features a bold, asymmetrical silver frame that gently arcs around a deep blue, teardrop-shaped acrylic element. The acrylic has a smooth, glossy finish and a rich translucence that catches the light with subtle depth. The chain is composed of elongated silver links connected by interlocking loops, giving it a rhythmic, articulated flow. The necklace fastens at the back with a simple, integrated silver hook. Worn long, the piece makes a confident statement—clean, sculptural, and modern, yet with organic undertones. It sits lightly against the body while drawing attention to its fluid central form. Did you know that it was Björn Weckström's necklace Planetoid Valleys and Darina's Bracelet, made in 1969, that Princess Leia wore in the first Star Wars film in 1977?
