Sand Jewellery by Irma Földényi (STUDIO IF) has been made to return to nature. These accessories have been designed to make you think about raw materials and its origins.
Sand is a precious material. It takes thousands of years to erode rocks into grains of sand, only for it to be endlessly exploited by humans for economic gain. Irma designs her pieces by mixing sand with fish glue, a natural binding material. When the jewellery touches water, it will dissolve completely, rekindling with its origins.
Price: € 29,00 - € 270,00
Irma Földényi has incorporated an actual purchase price and a symbolic price that reflects the value of nature’s resources based on the geological timeline. The customer covers the designer’s hourly fee and material costs, but the symbolic price represents the value of nature’s ‘work’, thousands of years of erosion and the life span of a codfish. Purchasing a design ranging from € 29,00 to € 270,00 has an unparalleled value of billions of euros.
