COR
FINE JEWELRY COLLECTION
Cor* explores an aesthetic of decomposition by capturing the moment just before disappearance; this fragile instant at the edge of nothingness.
For nothing is more perfect than what can no longer be seen or possessed: the final visible state before everything dissolves into the void.
In this fleeting threshold, beauty appears in its most fragile form; destined to vanish, and therefore complete.
* From Latin corruptio, "decay, decomposition".

The COR Fine Jewelry Collection is composed of one-of-a-kind pieces, crafted in High Jewelry ateliers between Paris and Italy.
Each smoky quartz is individually heat-treated to achieve subtle gradients, from ashy brown to off-white, before being hand-set. The silver is textured and finished by hand to create a deteriorated surface that evokes the passage of time.
