Artist Elaine Young is launching a line of [futuristic DNA necklaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3dtcable-collection) that present the epitome of personalization. The incredibly interesting jewelry boasts a small glass capsule that contains one's own DNA or the DNA of a loved one or even a pet. The DNA necklace range consists of three distinct silhouettes that boast an industrial feel, with hints of modernism. The collection is named 'Amula.'

Elaine Young launched a [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perfumable-jewelry) campaign that successfully funded her project. The process of acquiring the authentic DNA necklace is made to be quite easy and efficient. Once the shopper selects a style, a DNA kit will be sent to their house. The individual has to take a sample and return the kit. Thereafter, the DNA necklace is shipped.
