The ARCHER Nomadic Necklace is a 46" serpentine wrap a fluid, sculptural strand of history, heritage, and raw elemental beauty. Designed to move with the body and intention, it can be worn long, doubled, or styled cross-body like a harness. Each piece is a curated journey, combining tribal artifacts, precious gems, ancient trade beads, and rare mineral forms into one continuous story.

Named for focus and direction, ARCHER is both bohemian and warrior-like. A power piece rooted in ancient craftsmanship and modern expression. Its asymmetric arrangement of raw textures and jewel tones reflects Alexandria Black’s devotion to slow adornment, global culture, and spiritual utility.

Each Alexandria Black piece is a reverent expression of natural history and cultural legacy crafted from gemstones, crystals, fine metals, leather, feathers, bark, and antique textiles. Inspired by the primitive elegance of tribal adornment, ceremonial tools, ancient armor, and sacred ritual objects, these accessories carry the essence of protection, identity, and memory.

My creative process is rooted in an ethnological admiration for global cultures, and deeply informed by the textures of pottery, textiles, and natural materials. Fragrance is part of that ritual; each piece is accompanied by a seasonal aromatherapy blend, a sensory gift to ground your experience. Each smaller jewelry and accessory item is securely shipped within the Alexandria Black keepsake satchel - crafted entirely from repurposed materials like antique Metropolitan Opera programs, modern design drawings, Indian saris, past-season design swatches, and lighting gels.

Influenced daily by music, architecture, nature, and the magic of art; these designs are both personal and timeless. They are heirlooms in motion, meant to be worn with intention and passed on with love.
