The SunDown Collection

- A Relic unearthed

 

The SunDown Collection is a deliberate departure into the bold and the nostalgic. Designed for those who express their narrative through substantial adornment, these pieces serve as a striking testament to personal identity. Each design embraces a rustic, distressed aesthetic, celebrating the "perfect imperfections" that define the natural world and the passage of time.

At the core of the collection lies the Dendritic Agate—a gemstone prized by humanity since the dawn of ancient civilizations. Known historically as the "Stone of Plentitude," these Indian-sourced treasures feature telluric, arborescent inclusions of manganese and iron oxide.

Set against a milky, translucent backdrop, these organic patterns evoke the skeletal beauty of a frost-laden forest at dusk. Associated for millennia with healing, protection, and the quiet growth of nature, the Dendritic Agate is the perfect anchor for a collection rooted in the earth.

To enhance this organic dialogue, most pieces are accented with the soft, earthy radiance of lab-grown Cubic Zirconia, providing a subtle prismatic spark against the stone's opaque depth.

The earthly form of the Dendritic Agate is mirrored in the hand-forged silver. To achieve the collection's signature historical patina, each piece is treated with a specialized Midas Black Max finish, then meticulously polished and sealed with Renaissance Wax. This ensures that the bold, "vintage" spirit of the silver is preserved against the elements, maintaining its time-worn character for generations.

In keeping with the ethos of my workshop, each piece in the SunDown Collection is a one-of-a-kind specimen. Because no two dendritic inclusions are identical, every acquisition is a singular artifact—a wearable connection to the ancient, atmospheric beauty of the natural world at the close of day.
