Tiny moon phases necklace, laser cut in cherry wood.

The minimalist design and use of negative space means that the colour of your clothes will show through the moon-shaped holes, so the necklace will look a little different each time you wear it!

I designed this statement necklace shortly after finishing my PhD in Astrophysics! It combines my love of science and laser cut jewellery. I hope you love it as much as I do.

Did you know that the moon rotates on its axis once every 28 days, which is the same time as it takes the moon to orbit the Earth? That's why there's a 'dark side of the moon' which we can't see from Earth, because it's always facing away from us. In actual fact the 'dark side' is illuminated by the Sun just as much as the light side, but we just can't see it!

This necklace comes in a Cepheid Studio branded gift box as standard (see last listing pictures).

All my items are beautifully finished and are 100% hand-made by me in my Paris studio.

This necklace is the perfect gift for any science-lover! If you have any questions, just send me a message.
