Some pieces combine semi-precious stones like amethyst and crystal stone. Van der Straeten's style combines meticulous craftsmanship with sculptural materials. "From the beginning, I used noble materials like bronze for the jewelry," he said. "The metal is always hand-wrought, then covered with a fine layer of 24-carat gold. That is what gives it a timeless aspect. The pieces have the feel of ancient civilizations, with a modern, graphic simplicity." Hervé Van der Straeten's work begins with a sketch. An engineer turned art student, turned jeweler and designer, When he draws, traditional boundaries between object, art and design become obsolete. Here is a Golden Long Necklace based on a slender Chain A multitude of Flat Teardrop Charms are spaced asymmetrically. They are all spaced esthetically but not lined up by size.
