Treat yourself or a friend to one of these exquisitely crafted necklaces and become Poké-pretty.
We’ve previously seen Japanese company U-Treasure make gorgeous Pikachu engagement and wedding rings as well as Eevee and Eeveelution necklaces, each of which left our jaws hanging at their tastefully elegant and understated designs.
And now they’re proving once again that they are among the best at adapting our favorite childhood characters into stylish goods with their latest line of customizable necklaces
▼ The sleek design makes up for the slight spelling blunder of “pocket” in their ad.
The necklaces can be customized according to five different aspects, giving you a wide berth of creative control over the finished product. These aspects appear in the following flow chart on the online order form:
▼ (Scroll down for translation.)
1) Font
Select from four different fonts: Arial, Century, Sacramento, or Yellowtail.
2) Text
You may request a name, initials, or even a date (eight character limit), including some special symbols such as a dot (.), ampersand (&), heart mark (♡), or infinity sign (∞). Please note that the company may reject certain words related to alcohol, tobacco, gambling, and others deemed inappropriate. For some strange reason, Pokémon names are also a no-go.
3) Character mark
Here’s the really fun part! Choose from 19 possible Pokémon character outlines, including Pikachu, the Kanto starters, Mew, Eevee, all eight Eeveelutions, and four types of Pokéball variations. What mood do you find yourself in today?
4) Mark position
There are four different positions in relation to the text for your character mark of choice: left/straight, left/titled, right/straight, and right/titled.
5) Color
Last but not least, select the color of your necklace. The choices are yellow gold, pink rose gold, and white gold. All selections are made from 18 karat gold and include rhodium plating for extra scratch protection.
The personalized text and character pieces come equipped on a 40-centimeter (15.7-inch) chain. Regardless of individual selection options, all necklaces are currently retailing for 29,800 yen (US$272) — a hefty price, but you get what you pay for in top-notch quality and customization.
▼ Examples of the finished product
Once you have made your choices in each category and submitted your order using the pink button on U-Treasure’s online shop here (Japanese only), the company aims to deliver your new Poké-bling within four to five weeks.
U-Treasure’s official site suggests ordering a necklace for a friend or family member to celebrate a birthday, special anniversary, or the birth of a child, but we don’t see any harm in treating yourself to you just for the heck of it! Why not indulge the next time you successfully defeat the Elite Four in a Pokémon game of your choice?
