About Memorial Collaret

Memorial és un collaret modular fet de plata pura. El disseny homenatja el personal mèdic que va tenir cura dels pacients durant la pandèmia de Covid-19. La part circular del collaret representa un anell de llum al voltant d'aquests treballadors sanitaris. Les pedres precioses engastades a la base simbolitzen la gratitud envers el personal sanitari i assistencial. La peça es forma completament a mà amb argila de plata i després es cou al forn. L'element circular es pot separar del suport principal, de manera que ambdues parts es poden portar per separat. El collaret mesura 5 per 1,5 per 0,4 cm.
