Strata iii
Strata iii
Sterling silver, peridot & topaz
In my most recent piece in a series of projected stone settings, I revisit the hairpin/hatpin format. I wanted to capitalize on the movement of the stones and bring the piece’s proximity closer to the head. I think about losses and gains and how often we can take a few step forwards and one back. In this piece, losing is as precious as it is to be whole or complete. The pin and “pruned” stem can be worn together or separately.
