Anne Poon presents us with a collection of necklaces that transform a mundane staple to an every-day masterpiece. As a designer and architecture graduate from Harvard Graduate School of Design, Poon has an undeniable eye and a unique talent for sourcing materials that are both strong and fluid.
The necklaces are constructed often with antique and African beads, lending a pop of bold geometry to an otherwise simple arc shape necklace. Layered between brass disks or gold cubes, the statement beads are framed by unexpected sparkling metal, rather than the ubiquitous and tired chains to which we've become accustomed. The perfect balance of textures and shapes, these necklaces are effortlessly elegant accessories.
There is something profoundly empowering yet comfortably approachable about Poon's pieces. Perhaps it's the striking shapes so delicately arranged that makes us feel so confidently chic but not inappropriately edgy while wearing them.
An everyday necklace is one of the most important pieces of jewelry in a wardrobe; it elevates the simplest of outfits and dictates a level of sophistication that clothing alone often can't provide. We have yet to find an artist who consistently creates necklaces that are both divinely interesting and artistically wearable as successfully as Poon. And frankly, these necklaces just bring us endless amounts of joy!
