Men's Large Horseshoe Nail Pendant Necklace

A rugged piece of equestrian history, reimagined.

This men's horseshoe nail necklace features an unusually large 3-inch new-old-stock solid steel horseshoe nail, hand forged into a pendant and wrapped with antique bronze wire for warm mixed-metal contrast.

Its larger scale is exactly why I chose these nails for this design. Traditional horseshoe nails make wonderful jewelry, but this longer version has the stronger proportions and presence that work especially well for a men's necklace.

The pendant hangs from a rope-textured stainless steel ring on a 316L stainless steel curb chain, finished with a lobster clasp and offered in your choice of available lengths.

Designed with men in mind, but equally suited to women who like substantial equestrian, western or industrial-style jewelry.

A LITTLE HISTORY

These are new-old-stock horseshoe nails and were never used to shoe horses. Long horseshoe-style nails also have a history outside the stable: stained-glass artisans have traditionally used them to secure glass and lead came in position while assembling panels.  A simple utilitarian object with a surprisingly interesting past — now transformed into wearable jewelry.

Like the pendant but prefer something more substantial?
