Andrés Gallardo Little Hands Link Gold-Plated Necklace

An elegant, expressive style handmade from porcelain. Hands—which we use to communicate, sense, measure, and interact with the material worlds—were explored in Hand Signals: Digits, Fists, and Talons, a 2013 exhibition of 20th-century posters and ephemera from the Museum’s collection. Artists and designers have focused on this body part to represent a gamut of emotions. The sculptural Andrés Gallardo Little Hands Link Necklace is full of symbolism. One porcelain hand loops through an 18k gold-plated brass ring while the other gently hangs at the end of the fine chain. Wear this adjustable lariat design as a simple statement alone or with the matching earrings for additional impact. Andrés Gallardo and Marina Casal formed their Madrid-based brand in 2010 when they started making jewelry out of porcelain found at flea markets and antique shops—today they work with artisans in Spain and Portugal who use traditional techniques to handcraft each piece.
