Væk med det overfyldte smykkeskrin
Coast Lines er en multifunktionel smykkeserie i sølv - og måske de sidste smykker du behøver eje. Jordens lager af sølv og guld er nemlig ved at være brugt op, og arbejdet med udvindelsen er farligt. Thora Thestrup Okkels har derfor designet på tværs af kollektioner for at gøre op med den trendstyrede smykkeindustri og skabe et bæredygtigt, tidsløst bud på fremtidens smykkebrug. Smykkerne er formgivet med inspiration fra den danske kyst og i samarbejde med Georg Jensen.

Saying goodbye to the overflowing jewel box
Coast Lines is a multifunctional jewellery series in silver and perhaps the last jewellery you will ever need to own. The earth’s supplies of silver and gold are being used up, and the extraction is hazardous for the workers. In a series that spans across collections, Thora Thestrup Okkels challenges the trend-based jewellery industry and offers a sustainable, timeless approach to future jewellery use. The design of the jewellery draws on inspiration from the Danish coastline and was created in collaboration with Georg Jensen.
