An Editorial
An arc of volcanic islands. A moon that throws ice from its southern pole. The line water leaves as it withdraws.
These are the forms the house begins from, brought to the scale of the body and made in gold, shibuichi and anodised titanium.
Jewellery begins where material acquires intention.
Umbra of Io Choker
A hinged diamond-set sphere emerges from a collar of polished onyx.
The contrast between luminous pavé and dark mineral volume follows the surface of Io, where volcanic activity continuously reshapes the landscape. The openwork interior is cast in gold by cire perdue, then hand-finished. Articulated gold spheres unfold at one end, allowing the choker to adjust to its wearer.

Ananke Lovelace Necklace
Slim batons of beige gold run the length of the collar and open into a flat spiral.
It is set entirely with coloured diamonds that move from soft mauve through violet into saturated red, with a field of blue-green holding the opposite arc. Not one white stone among them.
In detail
Kore Necklace
Six sculptural spheres in two gold tones, forming a polar array.
Each is set with a lozenge-cut amethyst of regal violet, and between them angular diamond-set bars sharpen the geometry. The clasp is a leaf-shaped catch set with inverted secret diamonds, click-locking, invisible once closed.

Naiad Skylark Earrings
Iridescent titanium unfolds around a pair of Nigerian Lagoon tourmalines.
The colour is anodised into the metal itself, shifting with light and with movement. Platinum remains discreetly present beneath, providing the architecture. Worn here as a pair, one at the ear and one on the hand.

Structure is emotion made deliberate.
Atlas Spur Earrings
Named for Atlas, who held the globe.
Two long arms cross and take a box between them, spiked where they meet, the form of a spur drawn out at the scale of a giant’s hold. Inside each sits a fancy-cut amethyst in deep violet, its concave faceting throwing a star out from the centre. Reverse-set diamonds open apertures across the shibuichi, revealing ochre, scorched copper and mineralised desert tones held within the alloy.

Aleutian Precipice Earrings
Named for the Aleutian arc, where volcanic islands fall away into cold water.
Drawn as a pair of stylised hourglasses, they read as a vertical descent. Green tourmalines cut into graduated cylinders are set into shibuichi and traced with inverted diamonds, a block of small emeralds interrupting the line at one end. An engraved Japanese inscription lies beneath the surface, veiled by the oxidation it was worked into. The pair is deliberately unmatched in texture.

Enceladus Plume Earrings
Two tourmalines of translucent rose, cut to an organic petal geometry.
They are suspended within teardrops of mirror-polished gold, beneath a rustic pavé of reverse-set white diamonds punctuated by two green. Named for Enceladus, the moon of Saturn that throws plumes of ice from its southern pole.

Parhelion Earrings
Ceylon star sapphires radiate an asterism, evoking the rare atmospheric halos from which these earrings take their name.
Framed by constellations of diamonds against darkened silver, each stone is domed to gather the star into a single point of light under direct illumination.

Weight is not mass. It is rhythm.
Ebb and Glint Earrings
Named for the ebb, when water withdraws and leaves a line that never repeats.
The pair was built to resist symmetry: one form extended, the other compact, their height aligned while their proportions shift. Mirror-polished beige gold meets the darker patina of shibuichi along a boundary that bends, carrying a line of inverted diamonds whose scale changes as the curve turns. An aquamarine hangs at the base of each, one broader, one more restrained.

Haumea Chroma Ring
An iridescent beige opal within a crown of yellow gold and a halo of reverse-set diamonds.
The three arcs framing it were worked to the precision of fine watchmaking, and inside, the band carries a sculpted topography made for the hand.
In detail
Ephyra Ring
Named for Ephyra, the old name for Corinth, and made to look recovered rather than made.
An unheated sapphire with a chequered crown sits within a pierced setting of patinated silver, brilliant-cut diamonds tracing the undulating band. The underside is hollowed to mirror the pattern above, so the hand reads what the eye does.
In detail
Laniakea Supercluster Cuff
Named for Laniakea, the supercluster within which our own galaxy is carried.
Diamonds in white, yellow and champagne, brilliant-cut and rose-cut, drift across raw shakudō and yellow gold in constellations that never resolve into a pattern, and some are set in reverse so the culets stand proud of the surface and break the line.
