How to wear this necklace:

Its short shape and coral snake pattern make it a bold statement piece; wear it as the centerpiece over a solid-colored top with no other necklaces. Looks sublime with a white shirt, a black top, or a simple dress (black or dark red) that leaves the neck bare.

It also works well with an understated blazer or a minimalist top, adding character to an urban outfit. You can pair it with fine Miçanga earrings, but always let the necklace dominate the silhouette.

The coral snake, a source of inspiration

The pattern of this creation evokes the coral snake (Micrurus corallinus). This documentary image helps connect the jewelry's design to the animal that inspired it.

How to wear it

This necklace can be worn alone as a centerpiece to showcase its pattern, colors, and Miçanga craftsmanship, or paired with more discreet jewelry.
