This unique pair of hoops is composed of two separate striated bands of gold which twist around one another, almost as if in a dance. Chunky looking, yet light in weight, this pair is an easy everyday wardrobe staple.
To design her inaugural fine jewelry collection, Leigh searched for years until she found the perfect wax-working method to translate her design sensibility to a finer scale. Working in an ancient Japanese formulation, a combination of beeswax and pine resin, Leigh artfully folds and stretches the wax to create the curved and knotted forms composed of fine striations throughout each piece. Somehow delicate yet substantial at the same time, each piece is an elegant play of contrasts, a miniature art piece to accompany you through your day.
