Ada Lovelace, mother of computer programming, was a gifted mathematician who worked with Charles Babbage to create instructions for his "Analytical Engine" (a precursor to the modern computer). Born in 1815, she wrote extensive notes for Babbage's paper, including a fundamental insight that the Analytical Engine, "might act upon other things besides number." Ada envisioned using the computer in ways even Babbage hadn't dreamed of, and is now widely considered to be the world's first computer programmer.
In celebration of Ada, and of women in computer science, we have designed a hand-soldered glass pendant with Ada's portrait on one side, and a quote from her writings on the other. Using lead-free solder, the oval pendant measures 30mm by 20mm and hangs on a beautiful antique-style gunmetal chain. You may choose the chain length: long (32" - good for wearing over shirts and sweaters), or short (18" - good for showing off the pendant on the chest). The pendant is water-resistant, but not water-proof, so wear it while coding, but take it off when coding underwater.

I have 3 daughters who are all math and science women. The jewelry is really pretty and I can’t wait to give it to them for gifts this Christmas.
The pendant was just as pictured and it was delivered super fast
Boutique Academia is my new favorite place to get jewelry! The products are great quality. Everything is so unique and fun! Absolutely recommend!
I bought this for my daughter. she is extremely bright and smart beyond measure. I bought this for her and she loved it and wears it all the time.
The silver looks very nice and I t was exactly what I was hoping for. Would recommend!
I purchased this necklace as a gift, and she loves it. It arrived very quickly. It's a beautiful necklace, with a lovely message. Would recommend.
I have purchased several pieces from the Boutique Academia and they are all fantastic. Design and construction are perfect. I am planning on purchasing more items as time goes on. You won't be disappointed.
The Serotonin, Dopamine & Acetylcholine necklace is beautiful and the perfect gift for our chemistry grad student!
My daughter and I teach at a charter school, and one of our students gave us each a Boutique Academia necklace as an appreciation gift last year, which we both loved. For my science-nerd daughter's birthday, I ordered the Fibonacci earrings which she requested. She doesn't know that I also ordered the anatomical heart necklace which she said she wants to get sometime. It will be her Christmas gift!
The articles are just as I expected, the delivery really quick. Nice!
I live in Austria in central Europe. The necklace was delivered unexpectedly fast and I didn’t have any problems with payment or ordering details.
The quality of the necklace is just perfect and everyone, I show it to, is deeply impressed.
Highly recommendable!
This necklace is so pretty. Worth every penny, have been looking at this product for years and I'm so happy that I got it. I purchased the longer chain length and am so glad that I did.
I bought this necklace for a Christmas present for my daughter. I received it faster than expected, and it is a beautiful piece! I'm sure she's going to love it!
This is one of my favorite necklaces from Boutique Academia. I love the feel of it on my neck. The tiny coffee cup and saucer keep it fun. A bit of whimsy with the science-perfect.
My wife absolutely loved it! She was so surprised and did not know there was such a website to cater to math geeks. Thank you.
A dear friend of mine is going back to school, and I chose the brain necklace as a gift. She loved it! I really enjoy all of the fun, scientific jewelry for myself and my friends. Keep up the great work!
I have purchased several necklaces from Botique Academia. All of them are top quality, and have a great "feel" on my neck. The Acorn Necklace is the heaviest and largest of the assortment I have purchased. The chain is just the right weight to hold it, and the acorn pendant is unique and fun to wear.
Looks very nice and is good quality, I wish the necklace itself was not as long, but overall pretty happy. Would recommend👍🏻
Beautiful set! My "science teacher" daughter will love them!
I purchased the Lapis Lazuli necklace as a gift, and the quality of this piece is outstanding. I am sure the recipient will love it.
Beautiful! It is really stunning, and will be a perfect present! And the beads move so it can work!
I saw this necklace online and fell in love with it! It was out of stock and I had to wait 9 months, but it was worth the wait! It is even more beautiful in person than in the photos. (When it was out of stock, I asked to be emailed when it was available again. Boutique Academia was faithful and emailed! I ordered right away!) Very happy!
We have been waiting for this to come back in stock and it did not disappoint.
Whenever I'm looking for unusual, inspiring jewelry for gifts for my friends, I always come to Boutique Academia. I love their designs, the craftmanship is top notch and most importantly, there is inspiration in every piece which makes for a meaningful gift.
and she received many compliments about it from her peers
I recently ordered the Fibonacci necklace for my wife. She absolutely LOVES it! Boutique Academia made the whole process very easy & I will definitely order from them again. Service was very prompt and courteous, shipment arrived in a very timely manner and the quality is top-notch!
As a scientist and a nerd, I bought two earring sets, one of the Fibonacci Sequence and the other Particle Physics. I love them both. They are made well, and people keep stopping and commenting on them. So unique! I wonder which piece I'll get next. (-:
Really love this company and will definitely order from them again. Great customer service, fast order processing and delivery. VERY happy with both meaningful necklaces, Orion and Aries, that I bought.
It is so pretty! People notice and comment on my necklace whenever I wear it.
My girlfriend and I are great fans of the Tardigrade. She was thrilled to get such a great pendant of our tiny hero. Thank you Boutique Academia!!!
I love the Black Hole Necklace! It is so awesome to have a piece of history to wear. It is very distinctive.
I was thrilled to find Boutique Academia which has an amazing collection of unique jewelry reflecting the beauty of our biology and environment. Good and responsive service as well!
