Diver down flag necklace in handmade fused glass. The red flag with the white diagonal stripe has flown over dive sites since the 1950s. It asks boats to slow down and keep clear, because someone is down there. For divers it became a badge of the tribe, the symbol you spot on a stranger's car and know you share the same quiet world underwater. Wearing this scuba diving necklace says you belong to that world, and that you look out for the people you dive with.
Who it's for: the ultimate birthday gift for a scuba diver, him or her. Also a Father's Day, Mother's Day or anniversary gift, a dive certification celebration (Open Water, Advanced, Rescue, Master), or a Christmas gift for a husband, wife, partner, dad, mom, son, daughter or dive buddy. And if it's for you: welcome, fellow ocean lover.
The story behind it. Forged from art glass and shaped with fire, this pendant was designed and hand-fused by a real diver, made in our Florida studio, and shipped in a gift box ready to give.
Made for the beach. The flag is fused from red and white art glass in our kiln, so the colors are part of the glass itself: they can't wear off, fade or scratch away. It is fused at 1500°F and annealed, so it is strong enough for everyday wear in the water. The glass is fine in salt water, and the natural leather cord is made to last, holding up for years of beach days and ocean swims.
