A needle turns the piece into a brooch, while a tab allows use as a pendant or as earrings. Forty-eight combinations are possible. The silver parts are digitally modelled, printed, cast and polished. The titanium parts are laser cut, polished and anodised. The hexagonal forms follow the variety of snowflakes found in nature.

- Originally this collection was inspired by the diversity of snowflakes. It's impossible to count variety of these nature-made fractals. So designer wanted to create something that can be transformed many times and each combination can be different.
Original form of every snowflake is hexagon, so the core element has hexagon form as well. - Image Credits
