The asymmetric and very geometric collections by Kattri, Maison of jewelry made in Oxford.
In Oxford it’s teaching geometric asymmetry. Not, perhaps, in the famous University of British cities, but in the studio of Kattri, Maison founded in 2012, with a philosophy that is inspired by the concept of minimalist architecture. The idea on which merges is to create an ornament with the same structure of the jewel. Circle, square, rectangular, and their three-dimensional projection are the elements on which are made the jewels, however, together with traditional elements, such as gold, pearls, diamonds, stones are designed. In some cases, the jewelry may look like those elementary buildings that are one of the favorite games of children. But this, as we mentioned, is joined by another important element: the asymmetry. Are constructions, that is, which are not cloying because the forms are often moved by a deliberate lack of symmetry between the different parts. A concept more complicated to describe than to see. Here are some examples. Alessia Mongrando
