Order/Chaos sterling cuffs

Here are the cuffs that we designed and built for the exhibition which was just put up & out on display tonight. Got back from the "hanging" a short time ago. The work is varied, beautiful, thoughtful, politically charged and well worth the time if you are in town.

We are in such fabulous company and are truly fortunate to have been selected and to be the only jewellery artists for this show.



Order is uniformity, neatness, linear, methodical.
Chaos is variation, disarray, turmoil, frenzied.

We crafted two 6.5inch sterling silver cuff bracelets to represent our definitions of Order and Chaos.

Order shows linear thinking represented with horizontal silver lines of similar nature to each side of the word, uniformity through the letter size and shape of the word itself and it is neat and clean in finish.

Chaos is rough and colourful with the applied patina. The word itself is varied in size and shape and the turmoil and frenzied thought is shown through the scraps of silver at each side of the word.
