9ct yellow gold and sterling silver pendant on 45cm (blackened) sterling silver chain, set with teal blue/green Australian sapphires and white diamonds.19mm diameter, 7.53g total weight.
This pendant has a curved back so that it moves – and sparkles – when worn.
In this collection, Stratum refers to geological layers of material formed over time under pressure, marked by mineral presence.
The works take the form of idealised core samples – discs and hollow cylinders that echo the sections extracted to study the earth’s structure.
The brushed gold acts as a cut plane, while gemstones are set as mineral deposits revealed within the cross-section.
