* PHILOSOPHY

Synaesthetic is an Amsterdam based studio founded on the idea of the powerful connection between shapes, colors and textures.

Drawing inspiration from synaesthesia, a phenomenon in which individuals, who are blessed with this condition, experience a powerful connection between colors and shapes. 
Thus, the (wearable) sculptures are a tool to honor our individual perception, which goes beyond our sight.

Synaesthetic is rooted in graphic design and fine art practices. Each shape is approached as an individual sculpture. These sculptures are interpretations of the order of Nature and her elemental principles. Appreciating the beauty and structures found in natural forms.

* PRODUCTION

All designs are made in the studio, produced through 3D-printing or laser cutting. Silver or gold is then cast, worked and polished by hand by a local goldsmith from The Netherlands.
All products on the webshop are specially made-to-order.
The estimated shipping time for each piece is shown on the product page.

* MATERIALS

As an artist I have a responsibility to prioritize upcycling and reduce waste. Recycled materials are used wherever possible. Such as recycled gold for fine jewellery and recycled acrylics for laser-cutted designs.

* REDUCING WASTE

When casting silver or gold, 90% of the material is being used.

While I aim to transition all my materials to sustainable sources, working with recycled 925 sterling silver can be very challenging. To sustain the best quality and limit waste, the product consists of 80% new silver and 20% recycled silver.

Product maintenance

Each piece is finished by hand. Meaning that minor differences in texture or appearance are a natural aspect of handcrafted goods! Here you can find some tips to maintain your pieces.

Silver/Gold metals may naturally tarnish when exposed to oxygen and sulfur particles in the air, chemicals, liquids and substances from the skin. To maintain the finish, use a gentle cleaning method, such as a silver polishing cloth or a silver dip solution.
*Handle your jewelry with care to prevent scratches and damage.
*Avoid placing it on hard surfaces.
