The Magpie Necklace

A Jen Shoop x Erin McDermott Collaboration

Meet the Magpie Necklace — a piece inspired by the charming belief that magpies are irresistibly drawn to anything sparkly and meaningful. When Erin first read Jen Shoop’s writing years ago, she felt that same magnetic pull. Jen has a gift for distilling life’s beauty into language that feels both intimate and expansive, and this necklace grew from that shared love of noticing the little things that shine.

Each bead was intentionally chosen — deep emerald greens with subtle marbling, grounded matte olive tones, and unexpected flashes of gold that catch the light just so. It’s timeless, a little whimsical, and full of character. The kind of piece a modern magpie would collect, treasure, and reach for again and again.

Tie it long or short, wear it with your favorite soft sweater or a crisp button-down, and let it be a reminder to follow the things that catch your eye and tug at your heart.

A sparkly little collaboration between two women who love beautiful objects, thoughtful words, and everyday magic.
