Sunbathing — pendant made of oxidized silver with gilding
Remember that sunset at sea that you wanted to take home with you in a jar? That elusive moment when the celestial body descends into the water before being completely dissolved by it. The waves wash over the fiery sun with the fragility of a mother’s hand bathing her baby for the first time. Then, they gracefully close it off from human eyes. After the moment has passed, you (and all of human civilization) can look to only one source of aid — photography. An image, taken in first with the eyes and then with a camera. Photographs do not allow the moment when you were absolute to disappear. Absolutely happy, absolutely satisfied, absolutely whole. Thus, we continue to live what we love, for we are but mortals who so ardently long for eternity.
Imagine now that your memory materialized into jewellery, and that unforgettable sunset becomes yours again every time you look at it. Time, in its never-ending battle with memory, then realizes the extent of its powerlessness.
Our new silver «Sunbathing» pendant symbolizes the right of every moment to be eternal. Simple flowing lines froze in place in exciting ways on the piece. They create calm where yesterday there was a storm, for tomorrow the sun will rise again, bathing its warmth in the waters of the ocean.
