Limited Edition 'Quartz Pyrite' Cuff
About:
The Quartz Pyrite series was created specifically for the Curated By. exhibition at AA-COLLECTED, inspired by the duality of Ele x Knoops analogue/digital work. Each feature element is cast directly from a piece of natural gemstone. Prior to casting into metal, certain elements are carved out of wax or added in order to attach to chain, for example. A hallmark of the designer's work is leaving some sections 'imperfect' and oxidised from firing so that there is a contrast between highly polished and rough and raw. This adds texture to the overall result.
