The story behind this collection:
IThis line is Inspired by cylinder seals of ancient Mesopotamia dating back to 3500 BC, which served as a personal signature to guarantee authenticity or legitimise a business deal.
Other sources, however, date the earliest cylinder seals to a much earlier time, to the Late Neolithic period (7600-6000 BC), hundreds of years before the invention of writing.
I loved the idea of “telling one’s own history” with the help of a beautiful object which can be passed down throughgenerations, withstanding time, as being literally carved in stone.
For the cylinder, you can choose from different ornamental or semi-precious stones and thus every piece of jewelry will be come your personal artefact.
Your cylinder will be hand carved and engraved with whatever is important to you.
Please keep in mind as every stone is different and created by nature, every single piece will be different and inclusions and colour variations are part of its unique beauty.
Nature offers a great choice of various stones to choose from (some examples).
