HNADA

65.00

Material: Sterling Silver / Gold plated 14k
Model: Single Earring
Size: One Size
Collection: NGEI

The HNADA earring is part of the NGEI collection, inspired by the Kanak artifacts from New Caledonia, a small French island located in the Pacific. The concept of NGEI is to juxtapose the ancient artefacts next to their futuristic version and thus re-question the mutation/adaptation of customs. The research process behind the project has also been a way to come back to my roots, and re question the impacts of colonization on education and identity.
Each object contains specific references taken from travellers’ discovery diaries and traditional legends. The pieces then become much more than simple jewelry, they become futuristic artefacts; « charged with symbols that convey our past values and identities into the future. »

This earring is inspired by the the flèches faîtières of New Caledonia (arrow sculptures), wooden sculptures standing on top of the huts cases of the tribes chiefs. We believe that they are a portal to the other world and can guide our spirits. HNADA means "first" in Kanak dialect (New Caledonia). A reminder of what motivates me to create, my island.

HNADA is sold as a single earring (1pc) with two available variations.
The first option is a sleek and minimal version where the pendant is attached to a 4cm snake chain.
The second option is a more classic earring style with the pendant resting on a 12mm hoop. The pendant itself measures 2.5cm in length, 1cm in width, and 3mm in thickness. For those opting for the gold-plated version, we utilize a 14k gold plate to provide an elegant and luxurious touch to the design.
