INNER CIRCLE EARRINGS
$154.00
handmade
Look Within
San Francisco-based artist Vanessa Gade turns the interplay of pendant and chain into a dynamic sculptural statement. Inspired by her city's inherent dualism, marked by its powerful feats of engineering (like the Golden Gate Bridge) and its peaceful Southern Californian shorelines, Vanessa captures this rich and varied landscape in the motion and tension of her bold, kinetic pieces.
In this particular piece, Vanessa was compelled to utilize the strong shape of the circle in a way that she had never seen before. She wanted to create a piece that would be both unique and thought provoking, but that would also celebrate the shape in a clean and uncluttered fashion. Her vision was realized in these striking oxidized silver and sterling silver necklaces and this pair of earrings, in which a circle, articulated in sterling silver, is interlaced with a crisscrossed net of sterling silver chain that glides fluidly with the wearer's movement. The unique relationship between the negative and positive space in Vanessa's pieces emphasizes their dependency on each other in a romantic and beautiful way, evoking our deep connection and reliance on those who support us. Handmade in San Francisco, California.

Vanessa Gade
It was Vanessa's passion for history and photography that initiated her path to jewelry design. While studying to become a historian at the University of California, San Diego she volunteered to help construct the new darkroom on campus, directly adjacent to the metalsmithing studio. Fascinated by the tools, stone, and molten metal, she wandered inside and never looked back. See all creations.
