I made these necklaces using vintage wooden chess pieces from West Germany and some vintage wooden beads. It is on a simple black cotton cord. It is super long so it just slips over your head. You can add more to the necklace or cut and shorten it as it is just tied at the back with a knot. I wanted to create something fun and bring new life to something that was cast aside. You could make it into a charm for your bag or wrap it as a bracelet or anklet. It is unique. I used the other chess pieces but I varied the bead colours for each one so no two are the same. It is from a smoke free home. It will be shipped with care from my home to yours.
