Charcoal obelisk pendant by Love Your Work Design



Charcoal obelisk pendant in oxidised silver by Love Your Work Design
$79
Available in-store or online

Love Your Design work drew inspiration from Leonardo da Vinci’s study of the Devine Solids, interpreted with our abstraction of the cube, obelisk and the prism. The resulting pieces are imperfect yet curious in form, yearned to be worn and played with.

Individually finished in oxidised silver and antique brass to ensure they match any outfit, minimal or outlandish.

Silver Claw pendant by Cotopaxi

















Silver Claw pendant by Cotopaxi

Cotopaxi in Ecuador is one of the three volcanoes celebrated in the evocative poem “Romance” about the dreams of youth by the Australian poet W.J.Turner (1889-1946), and the mountain was revered by the Incas as The Throne of the Moon. The imposing beauty of the Andes made a lasting impression on me and lava from volcanoes is a beautiful material which I use frequently. After many years in the business world the need to repair an antique necklace led me to take a basic silver-smithing course. That prompted me to pursue my artistic traits and to create my own designs which are inspired by the jewellery and artefacts made by the craftsmen of the Inca and other civilisations which flourished around those mountains.
