Aikido Meditation Necklace
Sweet meditation with a circle moon or sunrise in the background. This illustration says "Aikido" in Japanese Kanji down the side. The woman is sitting in seiza meditating. I have this same illustration in several colors, also in greeting cards, earrings, keychains, and other items as well.
Are these handmade? These necklaces are handmade by our family: Sarah, John, Madison, and Malia. We design and create jewelry and other items as we travel around the world on our sailboat. You can read more about our adventures on our blog
How are they Made? We design different drawings or use different decorative Japanese papers. These papers are cut and laminated onto wooden Scrabble Game piece tiles. The images and tiles are sanded to a perfect fit and the images are sealed in with a thick layer of jewelry epoxy. The epoxy resin makes the images magnified as if under glass while providing a layer of waterproof protection from scratching, UV damage, and yellowing.
The image tiles are drilled and attached to earring findings, necklaces, bracelets, cell phone charms and other items using small bails.
The tiles are about 3/4 inch by 7/8 inch. Earrings are about 2 inches long and necklaces are about 18 inches long. If you have a special request for a different length, please let us know and we will do our best to make a special item just for you.
Thanks for visiting us! Check out our blog to see where in the world we are this week!
