Description

A stunning amethyst and gold statement bangle by Amy Burton, the bangle centred on a beautiful antique cushion-cut amethyst of rich purple hue weighing 123.70cts, claw set and surrounded by an asymmetric, three dimensional, sculptural maze of 18ct yellow gold, the apparently random structure of the piece belying the incredibly detailed and carefully thought out tapering design with side hinge and concealed tongue and box clasp.

Directors Notes

The Disorient collection is characterised by strong architectural lines that cleverly play with ideas of volume, geometry and negative space to create bold sculptural jewels that are substantial but also light, open and feminine.

The complex asymmetry of the pieces is sometimes complemented by a beautiful coloured gemstone such as a blush pink morganite, or icy blue aquamarine whilst at others is left to stand alone in all its geometric glory.

The apparently chaotic structure of each jewel belies the hours of work taken to ensure that every line and angle was perfectly balanced in order to create the bold, dynamic effect Amy was looking to achieve with this collection.
