Delphine Nardin’s unique jewelry is designed around pieces of found sea glass, rough stones formed billions of years ago, and other collected relics. She combines these found eroded treasures with 18 carat gold or silver to create completely unique, delicate, and under-stated pieces of wearable history. Nardin launched her first jewelry collection after studying geology and archaeology. By exploring materials she asserts her emerging style in the pure, sculptured forms and graphic lines that distinguish her work, expressing light and fluidity. Her pieces create new links between archaeology and modernity, examining the passing of time, erosion, accidents, and the collection and transformation of abandoned materials. Her work draws beauty from simplicity and grasps a trace of the intangible through her underlying disregard for time.
