This handmade wooden sun and moon pendant holds day and night in a single disc: the sun on one side and the moon on the other, in two contrasting woods, the soft warm pink of okoumè and the vivid orange-red of padauk. The two halves are joined by hand along a wavy line that forms a horizon between two skies. Available in two mirrored versions, with the sun on okoumè or on padauk.
The name Sirius comes from the brightest star in the night sky, the Dog Star, which also gives Dogstar its name. Beside the moon, I set it as a tiny hand-set rhinestone that catches the light as the pendant moves.
Entirely handmade in Italy, using woods born to build musical instruments, with a natural oil finish. The bail is a brass guitar string ball-end, attached to the pendant with a guitar string, and the adjustable paracord necklace closes with a sliding knot. Diameter 34 mm, one of a kind: the grain never repeats twice.
The two mirrored versions make a perfect pair: matching couple necklaces to share with your partner, a friend or someone special, a meaningful gift for an anniversary, a birthday or a special bond. Choose the “Pair” variant to receive both.
