a href="http://www.catarinahallzon.se" target="_blank">Catarina Hallzon created this extra large necklace as part of an experiment to explore the body's relationship to jewelry.  Caterina describes her idea as "when we remember things we don’t only recall what a thing looked like, we remember the effect it had on the body. We remember how the body reacted.  I’m interested in the thing that happens when reality no longer fit into the expected picture".  This necklace is made out of electroformed, silver plated copperspheres.  The overall effect is pretty impressive.  I would totally wear this.  (Found through Why Not).
