Sloppy and pathetic work. There are no delimiters between the letters, hence there's no way to decode it. For instance, the " . . - ." from the first letter could just as well mean "eete" instead of "f". As an engineer, I'm disgusted. They should have at least used a prefix-free code if they don't want to encode delimiters.
(@George-K how's that for an even less surprising post?)

Silence is the delimiter. Duh!

How many engineers with information encoding expertise would hand-make jewelry?
Prolly just Klaus.
I'd put it in a way that doesn't require any shared knowledge of codes.
Something like this:
but with appropriate modifications to make sure that it comes across as F U in all languages and civilizations, whether humanoid or extraterrestrial.
