First Light by Indigene Design Warehouse
Born from the artsy creative house of Indigene Design Warehouse in Accra, this piece is a testament to the brand’s mission of blending local materials with vibrant African vibes. Each necklace is a collaborative effort between skilled artisans, ensuring the biological beauty of the bone is honored alongside the industrial shine of brass.
Craftsmanship & Design
The First Light necklace is more than jewelry; it is a sensory experience. The smooth, cool touch of hand-polished bone contrasts beautifully with the radiant warmth of the brass. Its artisanal value lies in the "perfectly imperfect" nature of handmade goods, making it a lifestyle fit for those who view fashion as a form of storytelling and awakening.
Materials
100% Kenyan Bovine Bone (Sustainably Sourced), Recycled Brass.

Why You’ll Love It
The Frustration Fixer: You no longer have to choose between mass-produced trinkets and high-end luxury; this provides authentic, artisanal prestige at an accessible level.
Value Add: You can pair this with a crisp white linen shirt for a minimalist look or layer it over a dark turtleneck to let the brass truly "glow."
Sensory Result: You get a lightweight yet substantial feel against your skin, providing a sense of confidence and "groundedness" throughout your day.
Care & Usage
Application/Use: Gently place the necklace around your neck and secure the fastening. It is best styled as the centerpiece of an outfit to allow the symbolic "dawn" aesthetic to shine.
Bonus Tip: Layer this necklace with thinner gold chains of varying lengths to create a modern, textured "neck stack" that highlights the bone’s matte finish.
Storage/Care: Wipe the brass with a soft microfiber cloth to maintain its luster. Store in a dry place inside a cloth pouch to prevent the brass from tarnishing and to protect the bone from scratches.
