On the face of it.

As human beings, we are hard-wired to find faces

Which is why we see them everywhere. In light-switches , the windows of a house, a stain on the floor.

Mother Nature makes find faces from patterns no matter how simple or abstract they may be.

Today though I would share some of my favourite face jewellery from  Mara Paris 

A jewellery line designed by architect Ayça Özbank Taşkan.

An admirer of Pablo Picasso’s and Henri Matisse’s single-line drawings, she developed an elegant collection influenced by the two artists. The Paris-based designer portrays the personas dominating her work through simple profiles with few facial details. Although the noses and mouths differ throughout the series, each figurative piece features a prominent eye.

The delicate collection includes earrings, rings, and necklaces, in addition to a more uncommon piece: Designed to sit at the front of the ear, the Dina Ear Cuff is billed as “a gentle ode to art that is always found in unexpected places.” You can purchase the minimalist adornments in Mara Paris’s shop.

Architectural and modern art inspirations turn into wearable pieces within the collections. Each piece is handcrafted by expert artisans. They are available in 925 Sterling Silver and Vermeil.
