Humphrey Earrings Twister

ball 12mm Tahitian pearl 11-12mm

The objective that Humphrey set for himself in Zusamm The aim of the collaboration with Norbert Muerrle for this jewelry line was to find a stainless steel material that is elastic. After more than a year of development work, we now have a 2mm strong fabric consisting of many individual stainless steel threads in different alloys and thicknesses. The stainless steel threads are twisted and processed together. Only the correct arrangement delivers the desired properties.

With this earring, the bracket can be easily opened to put the earrings on. The bracket then springs back into the closed position and secures the piece of jewelry against loss. The weight is kept to a reasonable level and the earrings are comfortable to wear.

The design of the balls may be reminiscent of the “retro style”. What is certain is that these pieces are simply beautiful.

Humphrey's Tahitian pearls:

The black-lipped oyster Pinctada Margaritafera produces black Tahitian pearls near the islands of French Polynesia. The oyster is quite large, sometimes reaching 30 centimeters in diameter. Therefore, the pearls are often large. They are unique due to their natural, dark colors. They can take on gray, silver or charcoal-like shades.

The HUMPHREY jewelry wearer can therefore be sure that she owns a special piece of jewelry.
