This handmade brass bell pendant marks Mariko's first exploration beyond ceramics, crafted in a material the artist deeply appreciates for its golden luster and quiet elegance.
Brass carries an archaic quality, evoking ancient roots and tradition, and it only grows more beautiful with age — each pendant becomes a lasting expression of character rather than something that simply wears out.
How to wear it: Wear it on the provided lace for a raw, natural look, or swap the lace for a fine chain if you'd prefer a more polished, everyday finish — either way, it's a simple detail that adds warmth and character to a plain top or dress.

Handmade Brass Bell Pendant – Mariko
Mariko is a Ukrainian brand dedicated to handmade jewelry, founded by artist Maryna Teslenko. With a background in ceramics, Maryna channels her skills into creating one-of-a-kind pieces that celebrate Ukrainian culture. Her collections are inspired by her travels across Ukraine, where she immerses herself in the traditions, rituals, and daily life of Ukrainians.
The collection presented at YIY-BO appeared in autumn 2022 after a transformative journey to the Ukrainian Carpathians. Captivated by the vast meadows, flocks of sheep, shepherd dogs, and the authentic warmth of the locals, Maryna infused each jewelry piece with the sounds, shapes, and spirit of this picturesque region. Each creation reflects the beauty, freedom, and enduring traditions of the Carpathians, bringing a piece of Ukraine’s cultural essence to life.
