Lightweight statement jewellery handcrafted from balsa wood and oxidized sterling silver. Easy to wear but hard to ignore.
Unique conceptual jewellery developed into small collections and limited editions with bold and edgy pieces. Carefully hand-carved from balsa wood and meticulously coated in various materials, from 24kt gold leaf to various pigments and paints, each piece is one-of-a-kind with each facet, bump, scratch or texture making up its unique character.
