Although many hieroglyphic scarabs are in a more closed-wing position – like our Pewabic paperweight – the Scarab Necklace has its wings extended and ready to soar right into a loved one's heart. 

The Scarab Club in Detroit features a historic, sculpted Pewabic medallion designed by architect William Buck Stratton above its main entrance. Founded in 1907, it
was a gathering place for artists and art enthusiasts. It was only fitting that Pewabic tile was commissioned for the exterior of the building in the late 1920s considering Pewabic Co-Founder Mary Chase Perry’s strong presence in the art and sculpture scene of Detroit.

Years later, the scarab came to symbolize renewal, transformation, and resilience throughout our establishment as a non-profit. 

Iridescent Glaze

Many consider the Iridescent glaze to be Pewabic's most important contribution to ceramic art. Through trial, error, and sheer persistence, Mary Chase Perry Stratton developed her first successful Iridescent glaze in 1906. Establishing the formula and stabilizing the firing process took another three years. Today our Iridescent pieces are fired somewhat similarly, though with safer materials. It requires a third firing and a process called fuming, when vegetable oil is injected into the kiln to create the extraordinary one-of-a-kind effects.

Rebel Nell

Pewabic is excited to partner with Rebel Nell to create our ceramic necklaces. Once our pendants are handcrafted by Pewabic artisans, they are taken to the creative designers at Rebel Nell who finish the process by adding sterling silver, adjustable chains.

Started in 2013, Rebel Nell‘s mission is to provide employment, equitable opportunity, and wraparound support for women with barriers to employment through their jewelry designs. This is achieved through close partnerships with Detroit 501(c)(3) nonprofits COTS and T.E.A.

  • Sterling silver chains are adjustable up to 28" 
  • Handcrafted in Detroit
  • Pendants are individually hand-pressed in porcelain and glazed by Pewabic artisans
  • Pewabic logo stamped on back
  • Slight variations in glaze and firing results ensure each handcrafted Pewabic piece is one of a kind
