Subatomic Necklace by Lemantula Designs

I featured Lemantula Designs in a past Kitsch Picks and the designer Stephanie contacted me and thus we decided to do a collaboration! I was excited when I opened up the package that contained the Subatomic Necklace. The piece is so nice and lightweight and I am so impressed with Stephanie's attention to detail with her use of 3D printing technology.

Stephanie is a trained metalsmith and with her exploration into CAD and 3D printing, she's created these wonderful accessories with polymer, acrylic and sintered nylon. Her unique visions came to life as Lemantula Designs in 2013 and she is now offering the world her wonderfully wearable geometric-inspired creations.

Stephanie writes about her jewelry:

"It has since become my passion. Constructing beautiful and unusual jewelry is one of the most satisfying processes I can imagine."

The Subatomic Necklace's atomic mid-century design intrigued me as it was so modern and current using 3D technology to make such a retro-inspired piece. I really enjoy atomic print and adding a little touch to any outfit was like an accessory lover's dream come true. I'm always on the hunt for the 'darker side' to the retro aesthetic and Stephanie must understand gals like me. *Wink*

The necklace makes a great statement piece, so styling my outfit around it was a lot of fun. I went for a dress with a plunging necklace to ensure you can see all the unique features of the Subatomic Necklace and added some striped leggings to infuse a little kitschy fun to the black and white motif. My wedge creepers and a few bracelets complete the look and a new favorite outfit is born!
