The Sapphire Tide parure
“the tide, in five pieces”
900 hours, recorded · one of one · gouache No. 8
A parure in the old sense — necklace, earrings, bracelet, ring, brooch — cut from one parcel of Ilakaka sapphire so the blue never argues with itself. The tide comes in five pieces or not at all.
It rests in the morning vitrine in Nairobi, and it has a habit of quieting the salon. The founder says she is not yet tired of it.
