New jewellery collection
IRIS
July 1st
After months of conception, we now present our new jewellery collection:
Iris (greek: rainbow) stands for a sensitive and purist series of jewellery in all colors of the rainbow or the iris of the eyes of the wearer.
The round gems are raised and flow in soft forms as precious metal over the body. Unworn, the rings are scuptural and sublime as a monument. Designed in collaboration with a true master of his craft, the noble series is executed and extended in cooperation with a highly talented young goldsmith. Discover Iris as part of the collection on display or design your own individual piece of jewellery with us. Choose from countless gems, gold or silver and various processing techniques.

Their work moves from one pair of hands to the other, from thinking to making. It’s a mixture of spontaneity and control, and it’s ultimately also a mutual audaciousness, with an attitude that might be described as “let’s just go ahead and attempt it.”
