Wylde's eye was caught recently by Completedworks: a London based fine jewellery brand founded by siblings Mark and Anna Jewsbury. With an avant-garde and conceptual approach, each collection is formed around a certain political or cultural observation. These profound statement pieces have caught the eye of celebrities such as Alexa Chung and Naomie Harris.
Their collections are characterised by stylised renditions on themes of societal collapse, faded civilisations, historical shifts are richly crafted using high-quality materials and traditional techniques. Take Dystopia; their latest collection, which aims to explore how actors and filmmakers use stories to sound out warnings to society. This complex concept is brought to life with 10 unique pieces; 5 are 18ct gold, handset with diamonds contouring each wing. The others are blackened gold (see ring above). All the pieces are characterised by carefully crafted butterfly wings, painstakingly arranged and assembled by hand.
