Pearl within the fragmented chains
Fragment of hammered oval and round chain are completed by mother of pearl discs which have been engraved with a chain design. Overlapping and interchange the narrative of two iconic pieces of jewellery, the chain and the pearls necklaces it creates a new interesting piece with a different point of view.
MATERIALS
silver, mother of pearl
MEASUREMENTS
The chain can be worn in 50cm or 45cm thanks to its adjustable clasp. The mother of pearl disc measure 10mm diameter.
COLLECTION
The pearl collection is characterised by the use of mother of pearl, which becomes the canvas for representing the essence of jewellery and their archetypal forms —such as a diamond cut gem or a chain necklace—, or to capture the moment of their breaking or becoming unwearable. My aim is to make a comment on the personal relationship each person establishes with jewellery and to create a conversation about how preciousness can be held not in the materiality of the object but rather in the very relationship one has with it and the memories related to it, even in the case of an ordinary pearls necklace.
