Worldly disc bottle opener pendant

To most people, this stainless steel disc will simply be an abstract-patterned pendant, but the opening of the disc is actually a functioning bottle-opener, and the pattern is actually a map in homage to the birthplace of one of fifteen well-loved brews. You can open your beer, and look good doing it!

A great gift for beer snobs ;)

Tuesday, November 29th, 2011

We’re kicking off 12 days of giving. Each day we’ll be featuring one of our most popular jewelry items, each at a special price for 24 hours only!

Today’s deal:
Get $10 off our Honeycomb hex wrench pendant (regular price is $74, today until midnight EST it’s on sale for $64).

This high-polished solid stainless steel pendant has a form that follows function: the hexagons can fit a standard sized bit (not included) and 8, 10, 12 and 14mm bolts, so that in a pinch, you’ve got a functional wrench in addition to a very cool piece of jewelry. It’s been featured in Wired, Gizmodo, Craft and Design Milk (to name a few!)

A great gift for those who are handy and appreciate design!
