Handmade with a curated mix of one-of-a-kind antique and foraged treasures.
Carrying traces of mid-century Texas culture, the Fun & Sun Necklace transforms a utilitarian object into a wearable archive. The pendant once served as a promotional token from Fun & Sun, Fort Hood, Texas — a place where leisure, military life, and roadside Americana converged. On one side, the engraving recalls a snapshot of time and place; on the other, a four-way screwdriver tool etched with a clover hints at the ingenuity of practical keepsakes from the era.
Suspended from a vintage silver chain, the pendant bears the marks of age — worn edges, natural patina, and hints of rust — each sign a testament to the journeys it has taken before. A small key-shaped charm accompanies it, adding another layer of mystery and narrative, as if it might once have opened a door or chest long forgotten.
This necklace is not just adornment but artifact, holding echoes of a particular past: a culture of roadside souvenirs, resourceful design, and the blending of function with memory. It invites the wearer to carry a fragment of lived history, worn close to the heart.

Chain: L 8.5 in.
Pendant: L 1.25 in. W 1.25 in.
