X Over ZeroWe designed these earrings to echo the futuristic spirit of 1970s High Tech Architecture while paying homage to the symmetry and precision of 1930s Art Deco. It’s one of our favorite designs—not just visually, but also because of the unusual process required to create it.<br> <br> As molten silver flows and crystallizes in the casting process, this particular structure traps a shocking amount of potential energy within its geometry. When the investment mold is broken away, that energy releases as motion—the form unravels and must then be annealed and carefully hand-twisted back into its precise configuration.<br> <br> While this happens to some degree in all castings, the effect is especially pronounced here. This continuous maze of elongated, interwoven angles compressed into a large prismatic volume makes this design uniquely volatile. It reminds us why we do everything in-house, on our own equipment, with our own hands and eyes.
