Batu Akik Botswana - Kalung Chip

The colors in this chip necklace are so varied that every time I glance at it, I notice a new band of gray, cream, or dusty rose. It sits at the perfect length on my collarbone and feels light enough to forget it's even there. The natural, unpolished edges give it a raw look I really love.

I was a bit unsure about buying a chip necklace online, but the natural variation in these Botswana agate pieces is stunning in person. The banding is subtle and each stone catches the light differently, so it never looks flat. It's lightweight enough to wear all day without noticing it's there.

The stone chips have such varied banding—each one feels like its own tiny landscape, and the necklace sits low enough that it catches on my collar bone when I move. Wore it on a long hike and forgot I had it on, which is the best compliment I can give jewelry.
