Design direction

Uneven black stone, a narrow burgundy line. Black obsidian and burgundy wrapping.

The two obsidian blocks have different outlines and reflective ridges. A fish motif marks each round Tibetan silver bead, while pale mother of pearl finishes the dark drop. Glossy ridges catch light on the irregular black stones. Patterned metal and pale shell add smaller details.

A symbolic studio interpretation, not a promised effect.

Closure & wear Fit & wear

Waxed thread wraps the long upper sections. Wrapped thread and curved hooks.

Burgundy waxed thread winds closely above each patterned bead. The obsidian sits below the metal, followed by a small mother-of-pearl shell bead and finishing knot. Silver-plated cupronickel hooks complete the pair.
Waxed thread holds the metal, obsidian and shell beads beneath silver-plated cupronickel hooks. Approx. 60 mm / 2.4 in total length.
