Geology, a science whose main object of study is the Earth, encompasses multiple disciplines. The collection of rings by Anthony Barrouyer associated with this theme also presents a unique style of jewelry, with a common spirit but distinct characteristics. The rings, pendants, and bracelets are made of solid silver at the legal standard of 925/1000 sometimes combined with gold at the legal standard of 750/1000, with or without precious or semi-precious stones. For some creations, the aesthetics achieved through the manipulation of angles, hollows, and openings in the metal evoke the features of rocky landscapes, cliffs, crevices, rugged terrains marked by the erosion of time.

Sometimes, the streaks in the metal of the ring remind us of the layering of geological sedimentary rocks that can be observed in rocks. Other jewelry pieces made of 925/1000 silver and 750/1000 gold may resemble volcanic features, specifically the appearance of volcanic rocks after an eruption, such as slag, where metals appear to have fused or melted, or even shattered, under extreme heat.

Pendants from the Krazy Stones collection may evoke plate tectonics, with the overlay of different 925/1000 silver pieces creating geometric yet asymmetrical styles.

Finally, for other pieces, each one unique, there is a reference to speleology, specifically to stalactites and stalagmites forming and evolving in caves. Their shapes are irregular, elongated, and sometimes they seem to come together to form columns.

As you have understood, the Geologic Collection is a visual journey, with a raw and distinctive style where the aesthetics of the jewelry underline the physical history of our complex and secretive planet.
