This piece was inspired by Brutalist architecture. We decided to work with deep textures and very geometric forms to create pieces that would feel bold, unique and would absolutely be a point of focus when worn. This piece has been hand carved and cast in solid sterling silver. Each piece is hand finished with a blackened oxidation that is coated in a clear lacquer to preserve it for longer. Over time the oxidation will wear away in the highest points and stay darkest in the deeper recesses. This will make for a piece that evolves with its wearer over time. Set with a YAG, this piece has vivid color to contrast the oxidized metal. I wanted this piece to feel like something found in an ancient tomb. Perhaps from a futuristic civilization.  An unusual and uncommon lab-created gem material, this electric coloured yellow-green gemstone is a Cerium-doped Lutetium Aluminium Garnet. Originally created using the HDSM method for its light-emitting properties and used in the optical industry as a scintillator, this material has plenty to commend its use as a gem material. This stone fluoresces under UV light and practically glows in natural light.   The band is sanded smooth to a 400 grit finish, oxidized and then some surface is removed for an antique look. This is a made to order piece in very limited quantities, please allow 2-3 weeks for production of the piece.
