Galaxy necklace: wooden laser cut astronomy necklace, showing the absorption and emission features of an AGN.

I designed this statement necklace shortly after finishing my PhD in Astrophysics! It combines my love of science and laser cut jewellery. I hope you love it as much as I do!

This necklace shows the spectrum of a typical AGN. Each line on this necklace represents a different element or molecule, so any keen-eyed astronomer will be able to tell what it is. From left to right their main spectral features are: OII, OVI, HeII, NV, OI, SiIV+OIV, NIV, CIV, HeII, OII, and HeI.

You can choose either narrow or wide-engraved lines - just make your choice when you add it to your cart.

This necklace comes in a Cepheid Studio branded gift box as standard (see last listing pictures).

All my items are beautifully finished and are hand-made by me in my Paris studio.
