Sarcophagus of Harkhebit

Posted on October 27, 2015 by Julie Gamble

We can’t get enough of him! Over 2500 years old and still impressive, the stone carver’s geometry still appears incredibly modern in its minimalism & simplicity - proof that great design is timeless.

If you want to know his story...

Osiris Beard

Posted on September 23, 2015 by Julie Gamble

This bronze beard was a major inspiration for our Osiris line.  The deep blue glass reminiscent of lapis lazuli, helped us define our color palette and the structural influences can be found in our Stix and Stud earrings as well as our choice to use true vitreous enamel.

                                                                       

This, along with the Sarcophagus of Harkhebit, is one of the many pieces we constantly return to the museum to view.
