Harmony Nexus : A Necklace Integrating Differences

At the first sight you will find this necklace alluring, mysterious and avant-garde. This is due to its unique design which combines various elements all in one with harmony. An amazing part is that this necklace is composed of different modulars. That means it can be dismantled into separate yet independent strings, including a 40-cm-long black baroque pearls, a 25-cm-long freshwater pearls of mixed color, a 16-cm-long round white South Sea pearls, a 8-cm-long hand-knitted 18k gold bracelet, together with a freshwater baroque pearl, two 26-sided shapes with invisible clasps(one is made of black onyx, the other white magnesite ), stud accessories, and pedant accessories.

You can match these strands to make new pieces of jewelry. This is realized by the 26-sided shapes which has invisible yet strong clasps. The shape got its prototype from an ancient Chinese stamp whose owner was a great general of ethnic minority named Duguxin. The magic lies in the attached invisible clasp which can withstand a vertical weight of 20 kg. This is a big highlight as it is unprecedented to use such a structure to join jewelries.

With the 26-sided shapes, you can seamlessly join the pearl strings and gold chains into a long necklace or short necklace. The black and white colors can not only form a strong contrast but also fits well with the color of pearl and gold, presenting an aura of harmonious difference. Also, you can disassemble them to single strings and use one to make a bracelet. Besides, with the stud accessory, you can customize the jewelry into ear studs. And ear pendants can be made, too, using corresponding accessories.

The 26 sided shape actually symbolizes the minority as the prototype is of ethnic blood. The colors of pearls and gold stand for people of different colors, while the gemstones means different cultures, places, and personalities. Therefore, the whole jewelry demonstrates respect and acceptance to cultural diversity, appealing for a world full inclusiveness and harmony.
