La Route de la Soie

This art jewellery collection explores ideas of representation, giving a new incarnation to pieces that carry a high historical or material significance. By making attainable what was previously exclusive, the work adds a new symbolic dimension to the original.

The series is both precious and playful, giving new forms to precious works whilst capturing their enduring beauty. There are elements of bringing daydreams to life, and the glamorous and exotic to the everyday.

These pieces are made of layers of printed silk, hand sewn with gold thread. Silver and gold leaf details are applied to catch the light with the wearer’s movements, adding another layer of depth. The resulting jewellery play with both our substantive and abstract perceptions: questions of texture, weight and material are thrown together with ones of authenticity, value and craftsmanship.
