Hey guys. Recently, a coworker wore a necklace that caught my eye. It looked like a flexible rubber band due to its smooth, continuous appearance. I had never noticed any pattern, so I asked her how it was flexible.

She explained that it was a herringbone necklace. Unlike what I had thought, it is not made of a single piece of rubber but is actually a chain with small, nearly invisible gaps between the links. The herringbone pattern gives the necklace its unique look and flexibility.

This was a quick but interesting discovery, highlighting how sometimes the simplest observations can lead to new insights. So those shiny futuristic necklaces actresses wear in science fiction movies are actually herringbone.

Also, a year ago, I found out leather cord necklaces are made by rolling thin piece of leather into a cord and using rounding tools. Never knew that it was possible to manipulate the same material used for luxury car seats or leather jackets into a cord.
