Yin yang necklace in dichroic glass. In Taoist philosophy yin and yang are the two forces that make up everything: dark and light, rest and motion, receiving and giving. Neither one is good or bad, and each one holds a small dot of the other, so they are always turning into each other. The symbol is a reminder that life is about balance, not perfection. Surfers know the feeling: the calm between sets and the power of the wave. Wear this yin yang necklace on busy days, on the water, or whenever you need to find your center.
Who it's for: surfers, yoga lovers and anyone looking for more balance. A yin yang necklace for men or women, and a gift for a birthday, graduation, a new chapter or "just because".
The story behind it. We etch the symbol into dichroic glass and fuse it in our kiln, so it glows and shifts color as you move. It is a great symbol to wear every day as a reminder to stay in balance.
Made for the beach. The design is etched into dichroic glass and fused between layers of glass in our kiln, so it is sealed inside: it can't wear off, fade or scratch away. Full fusing gives the pendant a smooth, domed shape that is strong enough for everyday wear in the surf. The glass is fine in salt water. The natural leather cord is made to last, holding up for years of beach days and ocean swims.

What is dichroic glass? Dichroic glass has a thin metallic layer that reflects one color and lets another pass through, so the colors shift as you move. It is very hard to photograph, so in person it is even more vivid than the photos.
