Wara Necklace

A Grain That Stands Firm

A grain of sand shaped by the wild forces of nature. Captured from Australia’s rugged shores, this piece stands tall, like an ancient pillar of resilience. It’s a symbol of inner grit and the strength to endure, no matter what.

Handpicked, x-rayed, and captured in silver, the pendant is more than a magnified grain of sand. It’s a symbol of resilience and strength, proving that even the smallest things can create waves of change.

 

Wear it:

  • As a reminder to stand firm, no matter how small you feel.
  • To carry a piece of nature’s raw resilience with you.
  • For the boldness to embrace your own adventure, no matter how small it starts.

Wara means sand in the now-inactive Karuna language, once spoken by the Aboriginal people of Adelaide.

Care

  • After use, gently wipe every piece with a soft cloth to remove makeup residue or oils from your skin. 
  • When not wearing your jewelry, store it in a jewelry box, a soft pouch, or an airtight bag. Arrange chains in loop shapes to avoid tangle and damage. Please keep it away from sunlight and humid spaces like the bathroom.
  • Never force or pull chains. 
  • Use a soft dry cloth to polish your jewelry gently. 
  • Silver will oxidize and darken with time and from contact with natural salts and minerals on your skin. If needed, use special polish or polish cloth developed for silver jewelry. 
  • Use your good judgment of when to wear or not wear jewelry. The general recommendation for all jewelry is to avoid wearing jewelry in a swimming pool, hot tub, sauna, or steam room. And never wear any jewelry in natural hot springs, as found in volcanic areas. 
  • And finally, wear your jewelry with attitude and pride!

 

Pro tip!
Look under the soft insert of the jewelry box your OUAW jewelry came in to find a small ziplock bag. If you store your silver jewelry in it when not in use, it will not tarnish as quickly. Not as fancy  – but practical!
