Are We Going to Die Pretty

Max's restoration work on 17th and 18th antique jewels, characterised by their high level of craftsmanship and evolved designs, inspired this brooch. It was created by melting together thin wires to achieve an unfinished and fragile aspect. As a part of the work, every time a piece breaks off, the owner brings it back to reattach the wire in another place. This way the jewel keeps changing throughout the years.
