Michele Oka Doner Talisman III , ©2010/2025 Bronze, 18 kt yellow gold, diamond pendant and handmade chain Pendant 3.1 x 2 cm Chain: Module 4.7 cm; thickness 0.22 cm Edition 1 of 8 + 2AP Signed Talisman III (©2010/2025): A pendant in bronze, 18 kt yellow gold, and diamonds, accompanied by a handmade necklace, in a limited edition of 8 plus 2 artist proofs. This piece harks back to ancient practices of wearing talismans, imbuing it with a sense of protection and connection to the earth. The collection is an homage to “The Botanic Age”—a time long before the Stone Age, when plants and trees were central to human development and creativity. Dr. Dean Falk’s research at Florida State University positions this era as the true cradle of civilisation, where botanic inventions like woven baskets shaped our cognitive and cultural evolution long before we wielded stone tools. Drawn from Oka Doner’s profound connection to the natural world and human history, her designs serve as spiritual meditations of this era, reflecting a time when humans were stewards of the earth rather than its masters. Her message resonates powerfully in today’s world as we face the consequences of “Plant Blindness,” a term […]

Sophia Vari Néoptplème, 2014 Thassos white marble, Belgium black marble, onyx, silver patinated pendant with chain 12.3 x 7.4 cm (chain 40 cm long) Unique and signed Sophia Vari’s “portable sculptures”, as she likes to call them, first became part of the artist’s body of work 30 years ago; at a time in her life when demanding international schedule kept her constantly on the move. While travelling, she carried with her a small box of plasticine, from which she would mould miniature sculptures. “From that day on, I had a new creative challenge that gave me a lot of joy because I could see the pieces being worn,” she recalls. Vari approaches wearable art in precisely the same manner and strength as her abstract sculptures, collages and paintings. Her thorough exploration of bold geometric forms, the examination of volume, painterly curves and lines result in the composition both peaceful and elegant but also captures a harmonious theatrical tension. “It is a real challenge for me, and it is very much like creating a sculpture, made to be worn. No doubt, the fact that I am a woman has its advantages. Firstly, because I can try it on me – and […]

Bill Woodrow Double Canoe,2012 Silver and gold necklace 23 x 13,5 x 3 cm Edition of 8 + 4 AP Signed and numbered TheView Edition The Double Canoe Necklace by Bill Woodrow is deeply inspired by the artist’s fascination with indigenous cultures and their artefacts. In particular, it draws from the elegant and functional designs of First Nation North American canoes, as well as Inuit kayaks—objects that connect humans to water and the landscape in meaningful, age-old ways. Woodrow’s ongoing exploration of these themes delves into how traditional objects are perceived and transformed in modern, industrialised contexts. The necklace’s origin story begins in 2012 at the View Studio in Genoa, where Woodrow was surrounded by the serene reflections of anchored ships and the sight of canoeists gliding across the bay’s calm waters. This setting, combined with a series of sculptures and drawings inspired by archival photographs of Inuit life, sparked the initial idea of modelling a small canoe in wax. What began as a single canoe necklace evolved into the concept of the Double Canoe Necklace, as Woodrow grappled with the complexities of representing landscape and reflection in a sculptural form. The Double Canoe Necklace stands as a poetic resolution […]

Liliane Lijn Lava Leaf, 2024 Electroformed silver pendant 8 x 4.9 cm Edition 4 of 12 + 2 AP Signed and numbered Lava Leaf, 2024: The Lava Leaf  pendant comes in two versions: an electroformed silver edition (limited to 12 pieces) and a gold-plated edition (limited to 3 pieces plus 2 artist’s proofs). Both versions reflect the fluid, organic shapes found in volcanic landscapes, offering a tactile, nature-inspired design. Lijn’s artistic approach is deeply rooted in natural forms and elements, drawing inspiration from raw materials—volcanic magma, meteorites, clods of earth, and lunar rocks. These forces are translated into wearable sculptures, crafted from pure electroformed silver in Italy, embodying an organic, almost primordial aesthetic. Each piece reflects humanity’s connection with nature and the cosmos, serving as conceptual explorations of our relationship with the planet. Lijn presents a mesmerising new collection of pendants, and a cuff inspired by the ancient landscapes of Pompeii and the movement of lava. The collection explores fluidity, nature, and the powerful bond between humanity and the natural world. Her visit to Vesuvius and Pompeii ignited a creative vision. “These pieces evoke volcanic or lunar landscapes and even our inner selves. They combine ancient luxury with raw landscapes and cliffs,” […]
