It’s a striking piece inspired by the “distorted reflections and negative space found in modern urban environments and industrial architecture”. The necklace is handcrafted from fine squares of silver wire and 9ct gold, with polished services that catch and reflect the light. It’s designed to be light and wearable. The necklace is available from the Craft Design House for £2,600.
