About Core Halskette

Core ist eine handgefertigte, einzigartige Halskette mit zwei Siliziumproben aus den Schweizer Alpen, die einen natürlichen rosa Saphirkern aus Sri Lanka tragen. Das Design verfügt über Akzente aus geschmolzenem 18-Karat-Gold und eine Kette aus 18-Karat-Gold. Der runde rosafarbene Saphir im Brillantschliff von 2,5 ct fungiert als Herzstück der Halskette und schafft einen Raum zwischen den beiden Siliziumexemplaren, als ob der Edelstein die Erde durchbrechen würde, um das Licht zu sehen. Das Design fängt die Essenz der Entstehung von Edelsteinen auf visuell eindrucksvolle Weise ein.

Production Technology: The necklace has been handmade using a wax casting technique. The minerals have not been subjected to any color or clarity-enhancing treatment.
The materials are: 18kt gold, pure silicon specimens, and a natural Sri Lankan Pink Sapphire.
Inspiration: Core draws inspiration from the remarkable process by which gemstones are formed. The intense pressure and heat these natural elements undergo give birth to the stunning treasures that captivate our senses. It is this very process that serves as the foundation for the necklace's design.

The centerpiece of the necklace is a breathtaking 2.5cts natural Sri Lankan pink sapphire, which represents the pinnacle of natural beauty that results from this process. This gemstone, like all precious gems, is a true marvel to behold, having slowly grown over time into a coveted treasure that nature offers us.

Complementing this beautiful sapphire are two Silicon specimens representing the earth's crust, from which these gems are born. These specimens were carefully selected for their dark color and rough texture, being a stark contrast to the bright pink and smooth faceting of the sapphire.

Together, these elements create a truly exceptional piece of jewelry that celebrates the remarkable process by which gemstones are formed. The necklace serves as a timeless reminder of the beauty and wonder of the natural world, a treasure to be cherished and admired for years to come.
Project Duration: The project started in 2019 in Switzerland, where I found the two silicon Specimens, later on, in Sri Lanka, I found the pink sapphire, and they all remained in my locker. In 2021, I came up with the design after a conversation with my precious son, who suffers from Autism Spectrum disorder (ASD) level 1, and sometimes feels trapped in his body.
The piece was finished by June 2021.
Operation Flow: The necklace is worn with a detachable gold chain. the locking mechanism allows for the length to be adjusted manually.
