Hermien Cassiers Formula X NV Necklace
Edition of 8
2019
18k Yellow Gold
Hermien Cassiers constructs each piece in her Formula X collection from a gold alloy of her own making. Cassiers studied under the Italian goldsmith Giovanni Corvaja, learning how to imbue her own blend of 18-carat gold with increased strength and torsion to make each gold link uncharacteristically strong and flexible.
The NV Necklace demonstrates the mathematical precision of all of Cassiers’ artworks, juxtaposing geometric circular and square golden links. Airy, subtle and poetic, her works are gold sculptures to wear, manufactured by hand in her studio.
Artist
Hermien Cassiers
Far from traditional jewellery, Hermien Cassiers (Belgium, 1991) studied design at the Antwerp Royal Academy of Fine Art. Inspired by Architecture and Volume, she creates geometrical gold links, craftily intertwined each other.
