‘manymals’ by san-fransisco based designer markus diebel is a collection of five necklaces that features wild animals which hang from the chain as they would naturally in their habitats.

each form – including a snake, a sloth, a bat, a gorilla and a koala – is hand-sculpted out of clay, digitized, reduced then cast in silver.

the packaging, developed by the designer himself, is made from 100% recycled paper pulp and features a factual story about the creature contained within.
