Nut and Bolt with Gold

Neckpiece

18kt. Gold wire, Iron Wire, Sterling Silver, Rubber Tubing

2010

 

Nut and bolt with gold is a piece that I suppose could mark the start of a new collection. I have always been really interested in the nut and bolt, in fact I share this fascination with all manner of connecting instruments. I find their simple and inconspicuous functions a contrast to what is option a spectacularly interesting aesthetic.
