No66 Xmas 2022 Special Set

I am in love with Japan, with the uncompromising dedication of a nation to design and so here comes another homage to this beautiful country.

A large hammered silver moon is the undisputed focal point of this necklace complimented with lava beads that I have, for lack of a better word “ hand- silvered” with silver-leaf from Thailand. I have gilded beads for a decade, but I have only recently branched out into cool silver instead of gold leaf.

Look carefully and you will see that Arabic Prayer bead has been exquisitely inlaid in meticulous detail, a quality of work hard to find in today’s day and age. The refined quality of these beads belies the long journey they have traveled through the back alleys and markets of North Africa. Prayer beads such as these embody the intersection artistic expression and faithful devotion that are a cornerstone of the Islamic world. 

Understated black on black with gemstones of many different shapes bring this contemporary necklace alive in the most delicious way.

The necklace and earrings are limited edition pieces, the small earrings and bracelet are one-of-akinf designs.
