{"product_id":"medium-necklace-display-18-14-cm","title":"Medium Necklace Display 18 × 14 cm","description":"\u003cp\u003eA teal velvet-covered bust that holds a necklace the way it would sit when worn, resting on a small round wooden base. It turns a chain from something coiled in a drawer into something you can see, choose and enjoy, and it gives the piece a little shoulder-shaped stage of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat you'll notice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe colour is a deep, saturated teal, soft and matte, with the slightly napped surface that velvet and suede give. Light settles into it rather than bouncing off.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe bust has a gently sloping shoulder line that comes to a soft point at the front, with a rounded neck-top where a pendant or collar piece can rest.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe base is pale, natural-looking wood, a plain round disc that lets the colour above it do the talking.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIt is open display only, with no drawers or compartments. What you place on it stays in view.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDesign and form\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe word \"bust\" comes from sculpture, where a head-and-shoulders form is the natural way to show what sits at the neck. The same logic works for jewellery: a necklace on a bust hangs at the angle and curve it was designed for, so a pendant falls where it should and a chain drapes the way it would on a person.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shape here is simple and uncluttered. A single upright column joins the shoulders to the wooden disc, which keeps the silhouette light. The fabric covers the whole form in one even tone, so the eye goes to the jewellery rather than to the stand.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMaterials\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stand combines wood, suede and velvet. The fabric gives the bust a soft backdrop that suits both metal and stone, and the wooden base adds a natural, grounded contrast to the teal. A soft, napped surface is also kinder to delicate chains than a hard or slick one.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePlacement and styling\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt works well on a dressing table, a dresser top, a shelf or a bedside table, wherever a necklace is the first thing you reach for in the morning. Seeing your pieces each day makes choosing them part of getting dressed, and the colour does a good deal of decorative work even when the bust is empty. A rich teal sits comfortably against warm wood, cream walls and brass, and it makes gold and silver chains stand out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also a tidy way to show a single favourite piece, or to rotate a necklace you are wearing this week. For a small collection, a shelf with two or three busts side by side looks considered rather than cluttered.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep it somewhere dry, as the wooden base is best away from damp. Brush the fabric lightly with a soft, dry brush or a lint roller to lift dust, and avoid rubbing it hard, which can flatten the nap.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSize\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the medium bust, listed as 18 × 14 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is it for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDisplaying necklaces on a bust-shaped form so they hang as they would when worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is it made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWood, suede and velvet: a wooden base with a fabric-covered bust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it have storage?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo. It is an open display stand, with no drawers or compartments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is the medium size, listed as 18 × 14 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SHAMTAM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67941977194810,"sku":"VJD-05","price":34.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/8307\/0266\/files\/medium-necklace-display-18-14-cm-cover.png?v=1794135662","url":"https:\/\/shamtam.com\/products\/medium-necklace-display-18-14-cm","provider":"SHAMTAM","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
