Advanced Toggle & Jade Join Wrap Repair
A specialist repair and restoration service for pendants and corded jewellery requiring the more detailed half box knot whipping finish.
This service is offered as a separate quote tier due to the additional time, detail, and handwork involved compared with standard whipping.
Ideal for clients who would like the join, toggle, or cord divide restored with a more decorative and secure traditional-style knot wrap.
🧵 What This Service Covers
This listing covers:
- toggle wraps
- cord divide wraps
- jade join repairs
- anchor point re-whipping
- decorative structural joins
using a more intricate half box knot whipping pattern
This creates a more textured, visually detailed finish while also offering excellent durability.
🌿 Why This Service Is Separate
The half box knot style requires:
- additional preparation
- more hand-knotting time
- more precision in tension and alignment
- a more detailed finished pattern
Because of this, it is quoted separately from the standard whipping repair service.
🧵 Materials
Repairs are completed using waxed polyester cord, commonly used by many contemporary Māori master carvers and jewellery makers for:
- durability
- water resistance
- long-term wear
- secure knot integrity
Colour options can be discussed before work begins.
🌿 Cultural Respect & Mana
The same cultural respect and handling standards apply as with all other repair services.
If the piece carries mana, ancestral significance, or spiritual meaning, please let me know before sending.
Any optional cleaning or polishing can be omitted on request out of respect.
🌳 Wooden Components
Any wooden sections, toggles, or beads will receive a complimentary beeswax and vitamin E conditioning treatment to help nourish the wood, ease dryness, and reduce future cracking or warping.
📦 Sending Instructions
Please send clear photographs before ordering so I can assess the piece and confirm the repair style required.
Clients must send items using a tracked and insured service that covers the full value of the pendant.
Please ensure the item is securely packaged and not loose within the parcel.
I cannot accept responsibility for loss, transit damage, or damage caused by insufficient packaging.
💬 Please Message First
Before ordering, please message with:
- clear images
- preferred cord colour
- repair location details
- any mana / cultural requests
This allows me to quote correctly and ensure the right service tier is selected.
