Jewelry network

by Johanne

There’s something very cool about Nervous System‘s jewelry collection, “Hyphae.”

The design house does various household, jewelry, art and oh, you know, they like to grow rhizome-like 3D networks of nylon and enable them to interweave into beautiful jewelry that mimics human and plant circulatory systems. That’s all.

(!!!)

Nylon being what it is, the Hyphae jewelry pieces are incredibly light and flexible, so these puppies will be comfortable despite looking structurally solid. Of course we’re fascinated by the branching networks that are easily identifiable in the Hyphae collection’s cuffs, necklaces, rings and earrings.

Nature is so beautiful, isn’t it?

Rhizome cuff grown from 4 root points intertwined into a unified network, $75

Vessel earrings, $32

Mini Hyphae cuff, $55

Hyphae ring, small size, $28

River bangle, $70

I recently had the pleasure of meeting Marissa (via the blogosphere), the designer at Sea Flower Studios, a Toronto-based jewelry shop. Although Marissa’s hand-crafted necklaces and bracelets come in a multitude of colours, it’s her white pieces that I find most delicate and pretty.
