We are always being asked, time and time again, why we describe the wood in our pendant designs from the t:motions collection as ”snakewood“. The answer is simple:because it is snakewood :-) Snakewood is a type of hard wood and originates in South American and northern Brazil. And there really is a snakewood tree. This hard and extremely valuable wood looks like snakeskin with its dark brown and black mottled pattern, which is how it came by the name that has puzzled so many people. Using a special loop and knotting technique, the conditioned wood pieces are joined together with stainless steel and fine leather. In our collection we present several designs as well as different types of wood. But at the moment snakewood is the biggest hit.
