Inspired by our glittering and mysterious galaxy, the Iper collection is a puzzle of modern and solar references. Imagine if you can pixelate everything else but only seeing the things you want to see; this is the initial concept of the collection. The idea was inspired by a sight-pixelation technology from an episode of the dystopian TV series - Black Mirror. The shape of the design took reference from the classic arcade game - Tetris. The designs are finished in pop and contrasting colour schemes that are inspired by modern Art Deco.
The Chiara Ring in this collection is a winning design of the Goldsmiths' Craft & Design Award in 2019, and it inspired Edward to develop a whole collection of the storyline. Edward assigned each cube to a star from our universe. Each enamel is hand-painted in precision by our artisans, and each gemstone is ethically sourced and carefully selected by Edward. Therefore, each cube encapsulates a unique and truly fascinating story.
