Good Fortune

A few years ago I bought a bamboo ring from a vintage fair in Moseley, Birmingham. It has sat on my dressing table ever since and was the seed of inspiration for this collection.

When delving into the history of bamboo I became fascinated by its different meanings. The words ‘Good Fortune’ came up and I began to imagine fortune tellers, mystics and gypsies. This brought the collection and its aesthetic alive. The bamboo plant is also said to bring harmony and balance to one’s life and symbolises integrity. I wanted to combine it with a classic jewellery symbol - the horseshoe - which has an ancient connection to good luck. Your everyday ‘Good Fortune’ piece, a talisman for Luck & Integrity.

ITEM DESCRIPTION

Bamboo horseshoe pendant on a 100% recycled belcher chain with plaque on the back featuring the hallmark.

All pieces come with an authenticity hallmark card, detailing the marks and their meaning.

The ‘Good Fortune’ collection comes with a special postcard commissioned by artist Isla Simpson.

SIZE

Charm: Width 2.3cm Height 2.7cm (including horseshoe loop)

Belcher chain length: 48cm (19 inch)

MATERIALS

Silver: Solid sterling silver.

Gold: Solid sterling silver - plated in responsibly sourced and ethical 24ct Gold.

My gold pieces are classed as Vermeil, this means that the base metal is Sterling Silver and there has been 2.5 microns of 24ct gold deposited on its surface. I plate my rings to 5 microns as they see more wear and tear.

Vermeil gold is the hardest wearing gold plate as it has such a high minimum deposit required. However it will still naturally fade over time, especially in high pressure areas such as where the jump ring sits on the chain. Please read how to prolong the life of your gold jewellery here. I offer a re-plating service which you can find out about here.

Bamboo necklace

Gorgeous piece of jewellery bought for my Mam’s 70th birthday, she loves it and can’t wait to wear it 🥰

The perfect horseshoe necklace

I couldn’t be happier, it’s beautiful I never take it off, it’s made so well, it came within 2 days with a thoughtful note & good luck card. It’s my favourite piece ever! Mikaela Lyons is so talented thankyou so much

Absolutely beautiful necklace

I never leave a review but I just had to for this. Firstly, the packaging and the attention to detail on that alone is just stunning. The necklace inside is incredibly beautiful. I feel so lucky to own a peice of your jewellery and it certainly won't be the last piece that I buy. I can't wait to wear it!

Still obsessed with this, 3+ years on

I bought this necklace in late 2020 as a gift to myself when I moved back to the U.K. mid-pandemic, having come across Mikaela a year or two prior. 3.5 years later and I remain as obsessed with this necklace as ever. I wear it weekly, at a minimum, and have had so many compliments. It also looks as beautiful as it did when it arrived! Thank you, Mikaela, for creating such beautiful, long lasting, pieces for us to cherish. I still have the postcard on my wall and love the message of good fortune and integrity!

Never take it off

As soon as I saw this piece I knew I had to have it - huge horse girl energy but the combination of traditional horse shoe luck and Chinese bamboo good fortune just sung to me. I received two beautifully packaged pendants for Christmas, the perils of asking family and partner for the same thing! So one was graciously returned with no fuss. I find myself reaching to check it's reassuring weight through the day.
