Crux


< Crux > is a collection of nine silver jewelry pieces inspired by the geometric forms of bones and nature. The designs elegantly blend curves into a harmonious composition, showcasing expert craftsmanship and innovative techniques. The pieces incorporate silver plating over copper and the fusion of silver with 9K gold. Various textures are achieved through the lenticulation technique, while the contrast between oxidized and highly polished silver enhances the visual depth. Granulated metal adds a shimmering brilliance, enriching the collection with shining light.
