Astronaut - Cyberpunk Pendant & Chains | Mochipunk

The creation of each pendant begins with a deep dive into discarded technology — we source broken circuit boards, obsolete devices, and loose electronic components like wires, capacitors, and micro-gears. Each part is carefully selected by hand based on texture, form, and symbolic value.

After cleaning and surface treatment, we manually arrange these components into a compact composition — like building a miniature sculpture — to ensure that every pendant tells its own story. Finally, the structure is sealed in high-quality epoxy resin under vacuum pressure to eliminate air bubbles and ensure durability. The entire process is hands-on, slow, and precise — no machines, no molds, no shortcuts.

Resin plays a vital role in both the aesthetics and longevity of our pieces. First, it acts as a transparent shield — allowing every tiny component, from thin copper wire to oxidized gear, to remain visible in pristine condition. Second, high-grade epoxy resin is durable, waterproof, and highly resistant to wear and UV discoloration, making it ideal for long-term daily wear.

But more than function, resin gives the pendant its identity: it transforms fragile waste into a solid, wearable form — like turning scattered thoughts into a preserved memory. It elevates the rawness of tech trash into something refined and permanent.

Absolutely. Because we work with raw, irregular components salvaged from electronic waste, no two pieces are ever the same. Each pendant contains a different combination of wires, chip fragments, resistors, and gears — all arranged by hand. Even if two pendants follow the same layout, their internal textures and microstructures will differ.

This makes every piece a wearable relic — a tiny record of the chaos, entropy, and individuality found in our technological world. What you wear is not a copy, but a one-time creation that can’t be reproduced — only reimagined.
