Pebblebelly Necklace
There are only a handful of beaches in the world where orcas come to frolic and rub their bellies on smooth ocean pebbles, and two of these rare places are nestled in the pristine waters of British Columbia's central coast. This Pebblebelly necklace features an actual pebble from one of these extraordinary beaches, lovingly hand-collected by artist Kate Shepherd.
Each smooth, dark stone is most likely basalt, a volcanic rock formed from cooled lava. Rich in iron and magnesium, basalt is known for its deep color and fine-grained texture, giving each pendant a unique, natural beauty. The stone’s formation, combined with its connection to the orcas' sacred coastal habitat, makes every Pebblebelly piece truly special.
This particular pendant is cradled in a delicately smooth setting, reminiscent of the ocean’s surface at dawn. This subtle texture enhances the stone’s smoothness, creating a seamless transition from metal to stove reflecting the organic forces that shaped it. The design evokes a sense of the ocean’s quiet power, making this necklace both a beautiful accessory and a meaningful keepsake.
Pieces from the Bébé series are perfect for layering, allowing you to create your unique POD of Pebblebelly necklaces. These highly sought-after pendants often have a waitlist, disappearing quickly once available, making them a cherished gift or a delightful personal treasure.
