The pieces are both ancient and modern, rough and delicate, playful and elegant. Understated shine of brushed matte surfaces, softly rectangular shapes and molten ball-like joints connect collection. The collection is inspired by snakes, space and the sea. I named the collection after the Sea of Tranquility, one of the big Lunar Mares. In the 1600’s, when Moon’s geographical features were named, it was thought that the darker features of the Moon’s surface were water. They have been proven to be basalt plains. Snakes haven’t been found on the moon, yet. Silver and the Moon have been connected throughout time, probably because of the Moon’s silvery shine. In alchemy, the sign of silver is the crescent Moon. Silver also darkens as it oxidises, like the Moon darkens as it wanes.
