If I Could Give You The Moon – Eclectic Eccentricity

This is one super cool necklace that I get to share with you today from Eclectic Eccentricity (Also known as EE) – A limited edition, exclusive necklace that features REAL MOON DUST!

Established in 2004 by a girl with a passion, Lucy Crick, EE did not grow overnight; but from its humble beginnings on Lucy’s living room table it’s now grown into a small Empire of loyal customers, celebrity fans and worldwide stockists. This is a very special product launch for the company as Lucy is a former Maths and Astronomy degree student, who has been a dedicated star gazer since she was a little girl.

The design team have created a limited edition new necklace that includes real moon dust, taken from a lunar meteorite which fell to earth in 2005. If I Could Give You the Moon has landed!

Lunar meteorites are very rare, only around 180 examples have ever been discovered. By comparing the chemical composition of these meteorites with samples collected from the Moon (yes the real moon!) by NASA during the Apollo missions, the origin of these rocks can be confirmed as Lunar.

“An extra special gift or purchase for the stargazers, science fans or simply those who love objects of wonder, only 100 have been made.”

My name is Kristy, and I own Black Cherry Hair and Beauty. I specialise in alternative hair and make up and love all things vintage, zombie or cheesecake related.

I live in Kent with my gorgeous wife, our cheeky baby, Atticus, and a menagerie of crazy animals: Daisy (the dog), Ducky (the cat) and Petri (the lizard). Ok, so I have a thing for ‘Land Before Time’…

After moving from South Africa in 2003 and studying NVQ 2 & 3 hairdressing, I found I had a natural flare for ‘hair up’ and with the help of some awesome friends and family, I have built Black Cherry from the ground up. I love creating unique styles, be it for a wedding or photo shoot and anything from vintage to steampunk, goth to boho or rockabilly to punk. Back combing, hairspray, hairpieces and anything imaginative? That’s me, that is. Using hair pieces and structures to make bold statement hair is my ‘thing’. My next wedding this year is pirate themed – a bride with dreadlocks and a ship fascinator! Can’t wait.
