Cruel

$1,100.00

Cuff Bracelet: responsibly sourced and recycled sterling silver and 9kt gold, cultured freshwater pearls.

Cruel is a one-of-a-kind, hand-fabricated cuff bracelet forged from reclaimed sterling silver and finished with quiet, deliberate strength. Its face — a hammered and engraved silver “coin” bearing a stark profile — reflects the clarity that comes from looking directly at the world. The twisted band, accented with warm 9ct gold granules and ending in two luminous blue-green freshwater pearls, offers a counterpoint: fortification, grace, and the steadying weight of beauty.

Designed as a modern talisman, Cruel carries the idea that endurance is not a passive state but a chosen posture — a way of holding oneself upright through difficulty. Its wearer is invited into that posture: poised, grounded, and quietly empowered.

This piece was featured in the prestigious 2023 Mayo Festival at St Margaret’s Anglican Girls’ School, Brisbane — an invitation-only showcase honouring alumna Daphne Mayo (1895–1982), the groundbreaking Australian sculptor whose work, including the monumental Brisbane City Hall tympanum, helped usher Australian public art into the modern era. It was also selected for artisan Collects (2022), a collaborative initiative between Malki Studio and artisan Gallery that invited collectors to explore jewellery as an art form.

Fits a medium to large wrist.
