Myna

Myna pendent is an abstract and dynamic piece of art that shows beauty and elegance of an undying love. This pendant was the main piece of the first collection for Mina Contemporary Jewellery Gallery in Tehran. Myna bird and the paisley patterns are the main inspiration for this piece. Mynas in eastern cultures are regarded as symbols of undying love, because they often pair for life. Also, since these birds have the ability to mimic human sounds, young men would teach them a few words that could express their feelings, and give them as a gift to the girl they were in love with.

White gold jewelry collection

Transience

Different items of white gold jewelry in the shape of fragile, gentle spider webs intertwined with fabric that echoes the wavelike structure of the jewelry. The motion of thread in space creates a web, which gives an impression of fabric. It enwraps and embraces the body, which opens up numerous opportunities for designing unconventional jewelry pieces, single or embedded to the dress. Asymmetrically inset zirconia stones are reminiscent of fresh dew drops glittering on the webs. The impression of optical fragility highlights the transience of Nature and its beauty.

Atticus

Inspired by Bauhaus designs, Huckleberry & Co. have designed the Atticus to blend into the modern era whilst keeping a timeless form. The bezel is slim and free of any adornments to keep the focus on the dial. Additionally, the dial features a sans-serif typeface to help keep the face clean and modern. The red from the power reserve provides an accent to the face to break away from the color palette.  Connecting the straps to the dial, wired lugs have been used to separate the straps from the body and prevent distractions from the rest of the watch.
