Handmade with a curated mix of one-of-a-kind antique and foraged treasures.
A relic of the American frontier, the Marlin 1870 Rough Rider Necklace is built around an antique medal that once celebrated the marksmanship and craftsmanship of the Marlin Firearms Company—founded in the 1870s in New Haven, Connecticut. During this era, Marlin’s finely made rifles became synonymous with precision, independence, and the spirit of the open range. The engraved medallion, timeworn yet dignified, likely commemorated a sharpshooting event or award, its surface now softened by age and touch.
This historic token now finds new life, suspended from a hand-linked chain of green-toned stones and accented by a single freshwater pearl—a tender contrast to the rugged steel of its past. The necklace captures a rare balance of masculinity and grace, merging the stoic history of the American West with a quiet, modern romance.

Chain: L 16 in.
Pendant: L 1.25 in. W 1.25 in.
