Eastern Blocks

Eastern Blocks is a concrete jewelry collection inspired by Eastern European panel blockhouses. The collection includes necklaces and earrings that follow the shapes of prefabricated apartment buildings. Concrete is used because the material is light, non-allergenic and not easily broken. Each piece starts as a three-dimensional drawing, followed by prototypes and silicone molds for casting. The finished concrete parts are then joined with silver and leather. The collection invites a fresh look at Eastern European architectural heritage.

Dancing Ballerina

Dancing Ballerina is a kinetic cocktail ring inspired by the Hans Christian Andersen tale of the tin soldier and the paper ballerina.

Line Rings

Line Rings is a collection of nine rings designed to highlight the interaction between the wearer and the jewelry. A moveable sphere inside each ring slides along a track and gives feedback through sound, vibration and rotation. The collection was inspired by the labyrinth and by geometric architecture. Multi-segment structures create varied paths for the sphere. The rings are produced by three-dimensional printing and lost wax casting in brass with silver plating. Each ring measures approximately 4 by 4 by 4 centimeters.

The Rose Fountain

The Rose Fountain is a diamond ring inspired by the form of a revolving rose fountain. The design uses a rotary setting technique that places the stones along a curved line that rises like a water column, so the ring can be viewed from all angles. The curved arrangement increases the light return of the stones and makes the central diamond look larger than in a conventional setting. The ring is made of 18-karat white gold and set with diamonds, and a ruby is placed on one side of the ring arm. The ring measures 30 by 15 by 35 millimeters.

Van Gogh's Rosebush

Van Gogh's Rosebush is a handmade necklace inspired by the painting Rosebush in Blossom by Vincent van Gogh. The necklace is made of 18 karat gold and freshwater biwa button pearls. The pearls recall the rounded shapes and varied sizes of the roses on the canvas. The gold forms branches that link one pearl to another. The tip of the necklace is detachable, so the piece can be matched to the mood and the neckline of the day. The slightly curved form helps the necklace fit the body. The design offers a modern use of pearls.

Waves

Waves is a necklace made from recycled sterling silver. The form of the necklace imitates the movement of water and curly hair. The matt surface is created with a needle matt technique and resembles suede. The original piece for casting and mold making was shaped by hand, by bending warm wax sheets with form giving irons. Each necklace element has a larger wave at its center, surrounded by smaller waves, to create natural movement and a balanced design. The necklace is festive yet light to wear. The silver is not plated, and production takes place in Finland.
