Fragment Turned Head Necklace
Fragment Turned Head Necklace
A fragment of delicately carved ornamental stonework depicting a partial head in profile face adorns the wall of Sir John Soane’s Museum. Using highly detailed 3D scanning this is reimagined at a new scale in gold plated recycled oxidised silver, bringing to life the original craftsman’s detailed carving.
Sir John Soane’s Museum’s notes on the original fragment:

All of the collection is hand made in London’ s iconic Hatton Garden jewellery district.
