Gaia Double Sphere Torque Necklace
Regular price
£459.00 GBP
Colour
Bubinga
A thick sterling silver collar with a 40mm sphere pressed onto one end and a 30mm sphere onto the other. The collar sits at the base of the neck: cool and solid against the collarbone, two spheres of warm wood marking each terminal. The difference in scale is visible and intentional. A studied asymmetry rather than a matched pair.
The most architectural piece in the Gaia collection. The collar and the spheres hold a tension between them: rigid against organic, cool against warm, silver against wood.
Designer's Note
‘I made this piece for an exhibition. The two spheres are different sizes by choice: 40mm and 30mm. A matched pair would have been static. The collar needed that difference to feel alive. It was the piece people came back to, and the one I’ve been asked about most.’
Claire de Bezenac
925 sterling silver, hallmarked at the Birmingham Assay Office. Not plate. Real silver, with the weight and permanence that implies.
The spheres are hand-turned in the UK from solid hardwood, each one finished with carnauba wax which is a natural, vegan-friendly wax that brings out the grain without artifice.
Available in bubinga (deep red-brown, dramatically grained), walnut (dark and cool-toned), or sycamore (pale, close-grained). Because every piece of wood is different, no two Gaia spheres are identical. Colours available vary by piece.
All orders are dispatched via Royal Mail Tracked and Signed or DHL. Free UK delivery on orders over £100. International flat rates are calculated at checkout based on weight and destination. Please allow 2 to 4 working days for in-stock pieces, or 3 to 4 weeks where a piece needs to be made.
International orders may be subject to import duties on arrival. EU customers, we're happy to advise before you order. Write to us.
We offer a 28-day return window on all pieces in their original, unworn condition. Write to us at hello@mysilverwood.co with your order number and we'll take care of it.
Your Silverwood piece is made to be worn for years.

The Craft
Every Silverwood piece begins as two separate things: sterling silver and wood. And becomes something neither could be alone. The making is precise and unhurried, carried out by the skilled craftsmen and jewellers I work with here in England. There is nothing accidental in the finished piece.
Frequent Questions
Feel free to contact us if there is anything else you'd like to ask about
Are your pieces hallmarked?
Yes. All Silverwood pieces are hallmarked at the Birmingham Assay Office as required by UK law. The hallmark is your assurance of the metal's quality and authenticity.
How do I find my bangle / bracelet size?
Bring your fingers together and tuck your thumb toward your little finger, as if sliding a bangle over your hand. Then measure the widest point. Divide that measurement by 3.14 for the inner diameter needed, and add half a centimetre for comfort. If you're unsure, write to us. We'll help you get it right. For a bracelet, simply measure your wrist.
How long will my order take?
Pieces in stock are dispatched within 2–4 working days. Made-to-order pieces typically take 3–4 weeks. If you have a deadline, write to us before ordering and we'll tell you exactly where things stand.
Can I return my earrings?
For hygiene reasons we're unable to accept returns on earrings unless the piece is faulty. If something isn't right, please write to us within 48 hours of receiving your order and we'll sort it out.
