Rothlú Irish Jewellery - Easca Necklace
This hinged necklace is hand cut from Rothlú batik hand-patterned textured textile. It has a high gloss eco resin finish. The faceted black/gold on brass chain measures 52cm in total length, and the pendant measures 6cm in width and 10cm in length approximately.
As this necklace is one-of-a-kind, each one I make has its own unique texture and brushstrokes, clearly showing the artist's hand. I can also make variations based on this style.
Care for your Rothlú
When not wearing we recommend you store your Rothlú jewellery in the box it came packaged in- this way it is kept away from strong sunlight and the glossy finish will remain unscratched.
Our jewellery’s eco pine resin coating does not like water too much, so please remove before swimming, showering, bathing. We suggest you remove your jewellery before using harsh creams and beauty products. Keep your Rothlú away from direct heat and flammable sources.
A soft lint free cloth will gently clean any residue on the resin surface. If you have a piece with silver plated chain that looses its luster we recommend that you clean it in circular motions with a silver polishing cloth.
About Rothlú
Rothlú Jewellery is made by me, Frances McGonigle, in the Ox Mountains, County Mayo, Ireland.
The Ox Mountains are pre-Ice Age low lying mountains, littered with neolithic tombs. When I’m not making jewellery I paint in the surrounding landscape.
I studied Fine Art: Painting in the Crawford College of Art, Cork. Prior to that I attended Grennan Mill Craft School in Kilkenny, where I discovered batik and loved it. I’ve experimented with this discipline and other resist techniques ever since.
My surroundings are full of textures and hues: my colourful lightweight jewellery is certainly inspired by all of these elements.
