Dissonance Necklace

A striking silver necklace adorned with three contrasting red carnelian, blue spinel and yellow citrine stones.

The design is inspired by the Judgement of Paris, a popular story from Greek mythology in which three goddesses Aphrodite, Hera and Athena competed for a golden apple inscribed with the words ‘For the fairest one’, offered up by the vengeful Eris, Goddess of Discord. This fabled rivalry is the mythological basis for the Trojan War.

Specially commissioned by The British Museum in London.
