Solar Earrings: Escape to Stillness
Solar Earrings: Escape to Stillness
LIMITED EDITION
Earrings
This piece explores the stillness that comes from slow processes and how our creative skills and mind require time to master.
As a technique it is an ongoing body of work in my exploration of movement in metal. It introduces radial effect to achieve the movement of metal contrasted by the black jade. The piece plays with the symbolic value of ‘preciousness’ by putting gold at its centre stage and using stone to house the metal which is often the reverse way of creating jewellery.
The brooch is handcrafted; black jade has been carved from the rough stone and the gold ‘lashes’ has been drawn down into a very fine wire from the specially alloyed gold. Every wire is then meticulously soldered to achieve the radial effect.
Materials
18ct Gold, Black Jade
Limited Edition
As with any natural material, each piece is unique and therefore each item is different. This particular ice jade is not replicable but we do have a limited quantity of black jades available so please contact to view before purchasing.
