If you missed this beauty from the Wes Anderson-inspired drop, here’s your last chance! Now with slightly bigger star-shaped cerulean glass beads, so a bit chunkier than the original necklace, and even more striking. The mix of juicy yolk, aqua, green, and raspberry pink glass beads will bring a happy vibe to all your outfits.
Materials: Vintage yolk yellow glass beads from a 1930s necklace, blue “star” glass beads from a 1950s necklace, raspberry pink and aqua baroque beads from the 1950s made in Japan, blue lucite barrel bead from the 1980s made in Germany, green glass beads from a 1940s necklace; new 14k gold-filled hardware, spring clasp and heart ring; aqua blue silk thread
Length: Approx. 42.7 cm
A darling combo of vintage Japanese, Italian, and German glass beads from the 1940s, 1950s and 60s. These are all extra fun: Textured, foiled, spotted, folded, swirly, wavy… Modern beads just don’t have this level of detail anymore! Not to toot my own horn, but you won’t find a beaded bracelet as special as this one anywhere else.
This collection is inspired by childhood nostalgia, Showa-era Japanese toys and candy. I hope that wearing this special piece brings joy to the wearer’s day!
Materials: Vintage Japanese white glass beads with colourful accents made in the 1940s, 50s and 60s; vintage 1940s givre yellow and clear beads, vintage 1950s swirly yellow glass bead, and 1960s aqua and clear givre beads made in Germany; vintage Italian aqua swirly glass bead; sterling silver hardware, spring clasp and heart ring; silk thread
Length: 21cm (Need it shorter? I got carried away by my delicious bead cocktail. Just let me know during checkout what length is best for you! Alternatively, if you’d like this in necklace-form instead, hit me up on email or Instagram DMs!)
I’ve been hoarding these striped drop beads since the early days of Luneta, back in 2020. I’m glad I did, because this is the perfect collection for them! Inspired by childhood memories and Showa-era Japanese toys and candy, these earrings are pretty much the combination of all those elements for me.
Materials: Vintage 1960s Japanese aqua blue glass drops with white and cerulean blue stripes; vintage 1930s cerulean blue bicone glass beads from an art deco necklace; 1950s aqua blue glass stones made in Germany on new stainless steel ear posts; gold-filled hardware

When I saw these heart pendants, I immediately thought of those toy necklaces that came in toy kits, sometimes with a colouring book, some pencils, maybe a plastic comb (which, as you can tell, is my inspiration for the final photo). Their brass casing is a bit tarnished, but I think it adds to the toy allure!
Materials: Vintage oversized heart pendant; vintage chunky faux pearls made in Japan; 14k gold-filled hardware, spring clasp and heart ring; silk thread
Length: 44.5 cm, the heart is 2.5cm x 2.5cm

Luneta & Sustainability
Luneta Creations is a sustainable jewellery brand based out of London, England. Owner and maker Marianna handcrafts colourful jewellery using rare vintage beads, the majority of which comes from vintage necklaces she cleans and takes apart, giving them a new lease of life and potentially saving them from landfill. The rest comes from vintage deadstock warehouses. Reusing pre-existing materials is the best way to minimise impact, and it also means her handmade-to-order creations are unique and one of a kind. She hopes her sustainable creations bring joy and colour to their wearers' day.
We ship all orders using recyclable packaging and are Ecologi partners in an effort to further offset our carbon footprint.
All this said, we’re always trying to find other ways to be better, so do get in touch if you have any ideas about how we can be more sustainable! If you’d like to read more about our sustainability initiatives, see this page.
