Zaha Hadid created the Silene series in collaboration with The House of Aziz and Walid Mouzannar. The Mouzannar family has been creating jewellery since the 18th century, and they continue their tradition of crafting remarkable pieces with the Silene series.
Silene expresses the fluidity and complexity of natural forms. Incorporating visual elements derived from nature such as the geometric complexities of the web, or veins in leaves.
Inlaid with diamonds that float between the fluid forms to accentuate its composition, Silene orchestrates an ever-changing play of refraction and reflection that conveys its formal complexity.
