There's no better way to show your love of Star Wars and your best friend than by sporting the R2-D2 C-3PO Friendship Necklace. This necklace was created by Canadian crafter Amy of the [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dropshop) shop Rapscallion Design. The two-piece necklace set is handmade out of polymer clay and hangs on a silver chain. The R2-D2 heart is the more complete design, as the artist had to cut C-3PO's bulbous head in half in order to fit it onto the necklace.

In addition to the R2-D2 C-3PO Friendship Necklace, Rapscallion Design also features many more geeky friendship necklaces. However, things don't get much nerdier than Star Wars friendship necklaces. The R2-D2 C-3PO Friendship Necklace are made to order and sell for $33.17.
