The Ashley Lloyd team recently met SMITH/GREY at the Wolf&Badger exhibition showing their spring/summer collection 2013.
SMITH/GREY uses jewellery as a narrative medium to unlock the imagination and awaken curiosity. Their handmade objects of desire combine sophisticated design with a sense of wonder inspired by memories.
Excited by observation centred on their surrounding visual and human culture, SMITH/GREY creates high quality wearable jewellery designs out of their London based studio.
Founded by jewellery designer Brigit Mare Schmidt (SMITH) and creative strategist Sofus Graae (GREY) , their designs are an expression of their Central European And Scandinavian background combined with their British education and lifestyle.
At the core of the company is the goal of delivering he highest quality product made with integrity, passion and awearness. Each design is intended to bring an inspired and sophisticated edge to the jewellery ,market and ultimately, into your hands and home.
There are three collections:
The Ivy Noir- Mens collection
The Ivy Noir collection is a dark interpretation of traditional Ivy League elements. Created under the slogan 'Socii Extra Muros', Ivy Noir pays homage to an imaginary 'Off-Campus League' - the ones who challenge the purist facets of the classic Ivy League style.
I Can't Seem To Get Rid Of The Horses- Women's collection
The collection is a transformation of the designer's own recurring childhood fantasies of wild horse adventures into wearable jewellery pieces. The pieces are a physical manifestations of surreal equestrian creatures, reminiscing early childhood phantasies made up sitting underneath her grandmother’s kitchen table. The repeating horse figures place emphasis on the reoccurrence of her own infantile world of make-believe.
At Night I Dream Of Peculiar Things - Women's collection
A collection of spiral rings and earrings, with very peculiar stack rings. All handmade.
