SteamBuddy Robot Necklace

Handmade in small batches in China by Craft Artist Ke Tiaowu, this SteamBuddy Robot Necklace pairs an adjustable braided cord chain with a wood-and-alloy steampunk robot pendant that carries a bold, playful sense of confidence like a tiny companion on your chest.

Behind the Product

A steampunk robot with a guitar, a little offbeat and a little brave, made to be worn like a personal badge. It adds character to simple outfits and gives you that small nudge of "show up as yourself" whether you are heading to work, a gig, or a weekend coffee run.

For Strength & Confidence, it works like a tiny badge of character, a reminder to show up boldly and keep your edge playful.

Materials

Pendant: Wood body with alloy metal components in a steampunk robot design.

Chain: Adjustable braided cord, approx. 64 cm / 25.2 in.

Craft Process

Designed and hand-assembled in small batches. The wood body is shaped and finished for a warm touch, then carefully paired with alloy parts to form the robot silhouette and guitar detail, balancing a playful look with a wearable, everyday weight.

Handmade Character

Each pendant shows natural wood grain and small hand-assembly differences in alignment, finish tone, and hardware placement. These subtle variations are normal and make every SteamBuddy slightly one-of-a-kind.

1. Keep dry - remove before showering, swimming, or heavy sweating; avoid rain and steam.
2. Wipe the alloy parts with a soft dry cloth after wear; avoid alcohol, perfume, and chemical cleaners.
3. For the wood pendant, use a clean dry cloth only; do not soak or wash, and avoid long exposure to direct sunlight.
4. Store separately in a pouch/box to prevent scratching; keep away from sharp objects and friction.
5. Use the adjustable cord gently - avoid pulling hard, and keep away from heat sources to prevent deformation.

Shipping

Crafting time: most pieces are made to order and need about 2–5 business days. The current estimate for this design is shown on the product page.

Standard international shipping: free, usually 7–15 business days after dispatch.

Express options: paid express shipping is available at checkout to speed up the international transit time. Crafting time itself cannot be rushed, so we can keep the quality and careful checks.

All orders ship from Asia and US hubs with tracking so you can follow your parcel until it arrives.

Returns & After-sales

If your standard (non-custom) piece arrives damaged or very different from the description/photos, we will help you with a replacement or full refund and cover all shipping costs.

If you simply change your mind or feel it is not right for you (for non-custom pieces), you can return the item within 14 days from the delivery date. In this case, return shipping is paid by you, and we will refund the product price after we confirm it is undamaged.

For custom-made pieces (for example, sizes or details made only for you), we cannot accept returns unless there is a clear quality issue.

To protect your rights, we strongly recommend recording a short unboxing video when you open the parcel, so we can help you quickly if anything goes wrong in transit.

What Makes FolkMake Different

Authentic Chinese Handcraft：
Every piece is handmade in China by independent artisans or studios, never copied from factory molds, often drawing on symbols of blessing, protection and everyday luck.

Personally Selected Quality：
We only list pieces we would wear or gift ourselves after checking the details, finish and comfort in real life, and we highlight what each one is for, from calm or protection to love, strength, abundance or healing.

Clear Origin & Materials：
Each product page tells you who made it, where it comes from and what it is made of, in plain language.

Respectful Artisan Partnerships：
We work directly with each creator, discussing materials, techniques and fair pricing while honoring their vision, so you receive the piece in its most authentic form.

Why We Started FolkMake

We are a young Chinese couple, Cecilia Chen and Oliver Sun, who created FolkMake to travel across China, meet artisans, and choose handmade pieces that genuinely move us.

Each piece carries not only careful materials and craft, but also years of practice and personal vision. We keep pricing fair and reasonable so makers are properly paid and more people can discover their work, and we group our collections by intention so it is easy to find a piece that speaks to what you or someone you love needs most right now, whether that is calm and protection, luck and new beginnings, love and connection, strength and confidence, abundance and gratitude, or healing and comfort.
