Leia's Ceremonial Necklace: Prop Replica Collector Options

[Mara Jade's Father]

Iirc the closure is one element parted in two pieces. You could do the same and use small magnets on one side and a metal plate on the other side.

That’s exactly what I did on mine. Read two posts up: Leia's Ceremonial Necklace: Prop Replica Collector Options

I think you can see the closure on the original jewelers website.

Well so much for hoping to get the one at Galaxy's Edge... it's $2000.

Bumping this for my own selfish reason. I’m still surprised that this iconic piece has not had more attention in the prop replica community.

I'm also a bit surprised how rarely this prop comes up in conversations.

Well, I love mine along the bracelet Leia is wearing:


The braclet is called as "Darina's Bracelet" by same designer, Björn Weckström.

Part of Björn Weckström's ground breaking Space Silver collection created in the late 1960s, Planetoid Valleys and Darina's Bracelet became internationally renowned when worn by Princess Leia in the final scene of George Lucas’s first Star Wars epic, as she awarded medals to Luke Skywalker and...
