Microcosm of Curiosities

$400.00Price

Handcrafted entirely in sterling silver, this open hand chain cuff features a fine silver shell charm, a fragment of ceramic, and a piece of sea glass collected from the Ligurian Sea. Tiny, handmade silver balls are delicately incorporated, and all elements are connected with sterling silver chains. The open cuff design allows for gentle adjustment to fit the wrist comfortably, while the chain ring can be worn on the middle finger or on the middle and ring fingers together for a more snug fit.

 

The piece is inspired by the art of collecting and preserving fragments of life that are often overlooked. From early tools and ornaments to objects for practical and artistic purposes, humans have long felt compelled to notice, gather, and give new life to small treasures. This cuff evokes that instinct, capturing memory, curiosity, and the childlike wonder of finding beauty in fragments. Each element is a symbol, a feeling, or a fragment of memory, coming together in a miniature world worn on the hand.

 

  • As a one-of-a-kind creation, this hand chain cuff will never be recreated.
  • Its delicate components should be handled with care.
  • As with all hand chains, the central portion with the charms, sea glass, and ceramic fragment is designed to move freely across the hand. It will not always sit perfectly upright; it may twist, shift, or hang at times, which is part of its living, dynamic design.
  • Handle gently when putting it on and taking it off to preserve its unique structure and fragile details.
