Beware my giant gnashers!
This is my necklace. If you’ve seen me about recently you might have noticed it hanging all sparkly-like around my neck. Cal commissioned it for our first wedding anniversary – she sees it as the boy version of her engagement ring. It’s lovely and sturdy and I’m very proud of it.
The necklace was made by Chris Cole of Chris Cole Jewellery, who also made our wedding rings. CCJ is a great little new business in Wellington – I love Chris’s work (and his attempts to popularise a brooch for men, the bro-ooch).
If you’re in Welly next weekend, you probably already have the Saturday 27th Mt Victoria Inner City Festival on your calendar – when you’re there, keep an eye out for Chris and Anne of CCJ. They’ll be right at the centre of things, on Roxburgh St, just up behind the Embassy theatre.
Thanks Chris for the amazing craftsmanship!
Thanks Cal for the amazing gift!

Nice! I love the idea of the Bro-ooch 🙂
I do not have the inner city festival on my calendar! I know nothing about it! I want to go!
Jenni: linky added to the festival site 🙂
Very classy! Teeth are pretty amazingly crafted too!
I totally should have called this blog post “chain gang”.
Sometimes I get them right, sometimes I don’t.
Cheers for the plug Morgue! Looks awesome and we’re glad you like 🙂
It’s cool huh! Chris is an ideas man as well as a craftsman and he can take your wee embryo of an idea and turn it into something choice. You can’t see it on Morgue’s chain, but on the catch is a special ‘1’ to signal our first anniversary. It’s a cool little touch that Chris added. I love it!
