Chain of Thought Necklace by Leah Abercrombie

Only Once - Contemporary Jewellery Exhibition 2026

Sterling silver.
54cm in length.

A bold reinterpretation of finer works, this piece reflects the unrepeatable nature between material, process and time. With etched words.

Leah is a Newcastle-based contemporary jewellery artist with a foundation in traditional atelier training in the Hunter Valley and further studies in jewellery manufacturing at Design Centre Enmore. Graduating in 2000, she received both state and international awards.
Over nearly three decades, Leah has refined her skills in traditional jewellery making and gem setting while developing a practice that sits between contemporary and fine jewellery. Her work combines high-jewellery craftsmanship with a perfectly imperfect aesthetic, using luminous textures, engravings, romantic motifs, and subtle tool marks that reveal the presence of the maker's hand.
Individually hand-forged, each piece is shaped to follow the body's natural rhythm, exploring balance, fluidity, comfort, and connection. With a refined yet organic sensibility, her jewellery is intended for everyday wear and a lasting relationship with the wearer.
