kr 1 295

Did not try to stand out. Simply did.

Among thousands of pale grains on a beach in Fort Dauphin, one was bright orange.
Bright things do not always announce themselves.

Worn by ocean and time. The form remains.

Scanned using micro-CT imaging at a research facility and cast in 100% recycled sterling silver magnified 15× its original size.

Voam Pasika — a grain of sand in Malagasy, the language of Madagascar.

Sand is grit. Grit is sand.
The small is never small.

Pro tip! Find the small ziplock bag under the soft insert in your box. Store your silver in it between wears — it darkens far more slowly. Not as fancy — but practical!
