A heavyweight necklace formed from a vintage Italian chain attached to a sculpted clasp. The Reworked Chain #03 from H₂ERǴ is made from recycled and reclaimed sterling silver with a signature hand sculpted clasp.
Founded by Karoline Healy, H₂ERǴ is a research-based jewellery brand investigating the potential of regenerative and ecological futures. The brand’s name is a root word in Proto-Ino-European. It is a reconstruction of the first word used to describe silver, also meaning ‘to shine’.
Through crafting both jewellery and research projects, H₂ERǴ explores the new culture of precious material which draws from biotechnology and science as much as craft and history.
Based in London, H₂ERǴ aims to offer radical innovations to jewellery production They use recycled silver, upcycled elements and ethically sourced gems. In terms of inspiration, the net is cast wide - from natural growth formations to surrealism, speaking to the brand’s designer to merge the scientific with the artistic.
