Geologic Collection - Solid Silver Rings with Turquoises

Material: Solid Silver 925/1000
Stone: Turquoises (0.65 carat)
Weight: 13.5 grams

Geology, a science whose main object of study is the earth, encompasses multiple disciplines. Anthony Barrouyer's collection of rings associated with this theme also presents a style of jewelry, with a common spirit but different characteristics. The rings, pendants, bracelets are made of solid silver at the legal title of 925/1000 sometimes associated with gold at the legal title of 750/1000, with or without fine or precious stones. For some creations, the aesthetics rendered by the work of angles, hollows, and openings in the metal evoke the physiognomy of rocky landscapes, cliffs, crevices, steep cliffs marked by the erosion of time. 

Sometimes the streaks in the metal of the ring recall the layering of geological sedimentary rocks that can be observed in rocks. Other jewelry pieces in 925/1000 silver and 750/1000 gold may resemble volcanic rocks, specifically the appearance of volcanic rocks after 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 superposition of different pieces of 925/1000 silver giving a geometric but asymmetrical style.

Finally, for other pieces, all unique as a reminder, there is a reference to speleology, more 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, distinctive style where the aesthetics of the jewelry emphasize the physical history of our complex and secretive planet.
