In the early 19th century, as ships began moving from hemp ropes to iron chain, a new form emerged: the stud-link chain, distinguished by the bar set across the centre of each link. Introduced in 1813, that internal brace helped keep the chain from kinking or deforming under strain, making it one of the defining chain forms of maritime history.
The Mariner pieces draw from that language of strength and function. Their form takes cues from historic maritime chainwork, translating it into jewellery that feels substantial, resolved, and made to endure.
Handcrafted in 925 sterling silver, the collection includes the Fine Mariner Necklace and Bracelet, and the Heavy Mariner Necklace and Bracelet. Each piece carries the distinct rhythm of the cross-braced link, finished with a karabiner clasp that reinforces its practical, industrial character.
What continues to draw us to these forms is their honesty. They were not designed purely for ornament, but for tension, weight, movement, and use. That history remains in them.
The Mariner pieces are a continuation of that idea: jewellery shaped by utility, restraint, and permanence. Pieces made to be worn often, and kept forever.
