Real Talk
I bought the 925 Silver Necklace: Wood-grain Marble&Black Onyx & White Mother of Pearl Pendant because the photos looked stunning. It arrived quicker than I expected. First impression: classy, but not try-hard. The combo of wood-grain marble, black onyx and white mother of pearl is unexpectedly chic. The pendant has weight. Proper weight. Feels solid in your hand.
Huge plus: Handmade in Australia. I reckon that matters. You can tell someone spent time on the details. The silver is true 925. The stones are set clean. The polish is neat, not overdone. It looks like pieces that sit in boutique salons. Honestly, it feels better than many mass-market store necklaces I’ve tried. No cheap wobble. No flimsy clasp.
How it wears
The chain sits flat. The pendant hangs right at collarbone—very wearable. Gets compliments. I wore it with a linen shirt and a black tee. Both looked ace. It pairs with silver rings and small hoops. Not overpowering. Not boring either.
What I don’t love
The pendant is slightly heavy for tiny-neck fans. If you prefer barely-there jewellery, this might feel like a statement. Also, it needs care. Don’t sleep in it. Don’t swim in it. You’ll need to polish the silver every few months if you wear it daily.
- Pro: Looks way pricier than 155.00.
- Pro: Handmade in Australia — supports local craft and the finish shows it.
- Pro: Solid 925 silver and sturdy clasp. Feels like salon/store quality or better.
- Con: Needs careful removal before showering/working out.
- Con: Can tarnish over time if not polished. Not a set-and-forget piece.
- Con: Slightly heavy for those who hate weight on their neck.
Bottom line: I’m keeping it. It’s a staple I actually reach for. If you want a piece that’s simple but interesting, and you reckon supporting local makers is important, this is a solid pick.
FAQ
How long does it last?
In my experience, the necklace lasts years with basic care. The stones don’t flake and the silver holds up. If you wear it every day and don’t care for it, the silver will patina and the finish will dull in a few months. Polish it occasionally and store it in a dry place and it will keep looking fresh for years.
Is it waterproof?
Nope. I don’t swim or shower in it. Chlorine, salt and soaps speed up tarnish and can damage the mother of pearl over time. I reckon treat it like most silver jewellery: avoid water and harsh chemicals.
