White by Tanja Fontane

Ring / Abstract OnBody

Ring: White by Tanja Fontane.Silver, re-used porcelain.. 2016.4.7 x 1.9 cm / Ø 16 mm.Photo by: Pep Ávila.To incorporate porcelain into a piece of jewellery was a challenge for me: it's known as a "fragile yet heavy material. I have given battle with a delicate material: silver thread. I used it on the only jewellery that actively resists the use of porcelain: a ring. And it worked. By using pieces which had had other unknown uses and whose past is uncertain I can now see them in a more personal light. These old pieces have distinctive shapes and my favorite color: white..
