Forged from 100% reclaimed metals, Yanapuma is so excited to share the brilliant and current creations of husband-and-wife design team Ashley & Dara of Alkemie Jewelry. Their unique work is equal parts art and accessory. 

This necklace features a sculpted mermaid pendant cast in reclaimed sterling silver, hanging gracefully from a delicate 1mm diamond-cut Italian ball chain.

The mermaid is a timeless symbol of intuition, mystery, and feminine power. She moves between worlds—land and sea, seen and unseen—reminding us to trust our inner voice and flow with life’s tides. To wear her is to call in the medicine of fluidity, sensuality, and deep oceanic wisdom.

Crafted from reclaimed sterling silver, this piece not only honors the earth but also carries the strength and purity of sterling. The Italian diamond-cut chain adds shimmer and texture, catching light with every movement.

By creating new designs from existing materials in abundance, the mission is to translate something that would otherwise be landfill-bound into wearable art. These pieces are pioneers with hopes to change the jewelry industry with its social and environmentally responsible practices. Yanapuma loves working with this team as they too promote local living wages and eco-sustainable business practices.
