BLACK SERPENT
Black has its own architecture.
Natural, untreated AA black spinel from Thailand. Each faceted rondelle, approximately 5 mm, has its own irregular, angular character — a small sculpture in black stone.
Strung together, the stones form a fluid, almost articulated line, like a serpent at rest. Their irregular facets catch and release light in sudden flashes against the depth of the black spinel. The reflections shift with every movement, creating an extraordinary play of light that photographs can never fully convey.
Worn close to the neck, BLACK SERPENT follows the body with sculptural precision.
Restrained. Luxurious. Unmistakably striking.

Photography Note
Natural gemstones reveal different nuances in sunlight and shade. Their colours may appear darker, softer or more translucent depending on the light.
Camera settings and screen displays may also affect how colours appear. Close-up and macro photography can make the stones appear larger than their actual size.
