This asymmetrical necklace created from tiny glass diodes and green resistors has a decidedly organic feel to it, with the strands resembling flowering hanging vines.
This necklace is made from two types of resistors, the contemporary, smaller version in purple, and the obsolete, larger version in brown with yellow, purple, red, and silver stripes (which code for 47kohm +/1 10%).
Ninety-eight capacitors and diodes have been painstakenly woven together with jump rings and wire to create this Baroque-steampunk necklace and earring set.
