A glamorous giant jewel pendant necklace featuring iridescent printed detail and a custom cast, mega sized gem filled with dark purple and black glitter by Sophie of ‘House of Leopards’.
This piece is part of a jewellery collaboration between Dakota Rae Dust X House of Leopards.
Dakota Rae Dust X House of Leopards earrings
The idea for these collaborative GIANT jewel pieces came about when I found I could no longer source the giant jewels I originally designed the earrings around and resin artist / fellow jeweller and friend Sophie of House of Leopards suggested she could hand cast some in custom glittery colours instead!
The multi coloured pastel and black patterned jersey used in these earrings is secondhand. It was once a dress, picked up in a local charity shop then machine washed and repurposed in these fun size stud earrings.

While the cord, gems, vinyl backing and decorative prints are NEW, the patterned pastel and black patterned fabric and stripey backing fabric used in this tasselled pendant necklace are secondhand. All my pre loved textiles are machine washed before being repurposed.
Silky black cord
This pendant necklace fastens with a know in a silky black cord so it’s length is adjustable.
