Handmade Gothic Necklace & Y2K Earrings, Goth Subculture Fashion, for Halloween/Gothic Weddings/Punk Looks

I made these gothic necklace and earrings for the ones who feel most alive under the moonlight. For the women who see beauty in the shadows, and who know that darkness has its own kind of light.

Each Y2K necklace is born at my worktable, not in a factory. I shape every curve and detail by hand, letting the clay and my mood guide the process. The butterfly goth doll at the center isn’t just an ornament, it’s a little piece of my heart, shaped into form. She carries her own crown, her own defiance, and her own grace.

When you wear her, you’re not just accessorizing. You’re carrying a tiny work of art that speaks to individuality, rebellion, and the quiet power of being unapologetically yourself.

Design Inspiration

I’ve always been drawn to that space where beauty and darkness meet. One night, I was walking past an old brick building in town. The streetlight hit a tangle of ivy just right, and a single red butterfly landed there. It looked delicate, but stubborn, like it owned the wall.

That moment stuck with me. I thought about how gothic girls carry themselves the same way, with soft edges, strong core. So I gave the butterfly a crowned doll’s head, long bead tassels, and a cross, turning it into something that felt powerful and a little eerie.

This gothic necklace is for those nights when you dress up not for anyone else, but for yourself. When you put on your lace, your leather, your favorite lipstick shade, and step into the night knowing exactly who you are.

How It’s Made

1. Hand-shape the butterfly doll from stone clay

2. Let it naturally air dry: no rushing, no shortcuts

3. Refine, carve, and sand for smoothness

4. Paint by hand with my own custom-mixed dark red shades

5. Add tiny details: crown, gothic hand, and cross charm

6. Seal with a protective finish

7. Pair with glass beads and titanium steel chain

8. Assemble each element by hand

9. Inspect every piece before shipping

Order Processing

Every piece is made to order. I don’t pull from shelves. I start making only after you purchase. Most orders ship in 4 to 15 days, sometimes sooner. This is slow art. I work with my hands, not machines.

Care Instructions

• Avoid water: These are not waterproof. Take them off before swimming, showering, or sweating it out.
• Keep them dry: If they get damp, gently wipe them with an alcohol pad and let them fully air dry.
• Store properly: Place in a soft pouch or jewelry box when not in use.
• Be gentle when cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth. Avoid chemicals. For metal parts, a slightly damp cloth is fine.
• Avoid scratching: Keep them away from sharp edges or rough surfaces.
• No perfumes or lotions: Don’t spray directly or apply cream over them. Let your skin dry first.
• Avoid chemicals and heavy work: Don’t wear while cleaning, doing chores, or handling harsh substances. Sweat, detergents, and friction can damage the finish or cause oxidation over time.
• Even high-quality metals like solid gold, sterling silver, or gold-plated parts may naturally oxidize and darken over time with wear.

NOTE

Each piece is 100% handmade in my home studio. From mixing colors to shaping and detailing, every step is done by hand.
You might notice tiny marks, slight variations, or a bit of asymmetry, that’s part of the charm.
No two are exactly the same. It’s not a flaw, it’s what makes each one unique.

My work is 100% original. If you see similar items elsewhere, they’re not made with the same materials, or the same care. JoyGothic is the only official source.

🕯️ For You

Believe this: you can be soft, wild, rebellious, and free however you want.
Own your edges. Stay true.
We’re all fighting to keep our fire alive, breaking through the darkness, dreaming our way to freedom.
And no matter what, we shout it loud and clear:
Femininity is power. Women are always beautiful. Always have been, always will be.

Final Thought

This isn’t just a gothic necklace. It’s a little piece of the season, a small work of art you can wear whenever you want to feel powerful, beautiful and unapologetically yourself.

I made it to last, but also to be lived in, to dance in, to walk under streetlights in, and to wear while you’re making your own memories. Whether it’s Halloween night or a random Tuesday in November, this piece is meant to remind you that your style, your mood and your magic are entirely yours to own.

If it’s calling to you, trust that feeling. She’s ready to meet you.

About Me

I’m a deeply emotional and sometimes pessimistic person. Making handmade pieces has been my healing, it’s where I find joy so real that I often lose track of time and forget to eat. I just want to do what I love and support myself, so my prices reflect that balance.

When I first started selling online, I faced a lot of pain from stolen designs and copycats. It was tough. I cried more than once. But the kindness and support from strangers like you kept me going. You’re more than customers, you’re friends I haven’t met yet.

This little shop is a piece of my healing. I hope it brings you a piece of yours, too. Thank you for being part of this journey with me.
