SOUTH AFRICAN DESIGN ICON!! | VINTAGE CARROL BOYES SCULPTURAL RING.
ART FOR YOUR FINGER!!
A fabulous vintage Carrol Boyes pewter ring, designed in that unmistakably sculptural and wonderfully unconventional style for which the celebrated South African designer became so well known.
Rather than your traditional ring design, this beauty has been created almost like a miniature piece of sculpture — the top explodes into a fabulous abstract fan / petal-like formation, with smooth sweeping forms folding and overlapping one another.
Viewed from every angle it looks different!!
Carrol Boyes (1954–2019) was one of South Africa's most recognisable designers, famous for transforming functional objects and jewellery into quirky sculptural works of art. Her designs are particularly associated with fluid human forms, organic shapes and bold contemporary lines.
This ring is a perfect example of that design philosophy — chunky, artistic and completely different from anything mass-produced.
The polished pewter gives it that fabulous soft silvery finish, while the substantial open sculptural construction makes it a REAL conversation piece.
And even better...
It comes complete with its original Carrol Boyes brown storage pouch!
A fabulous collectible piece of South African design history and an absolute MUST for the Carrol Boyes collector — or anyone who likes their jewellery slightly weird, wonderfully arty and completely fabulous!!
Measurements : The ring measures as a size M as per ring measure stick and weight of 9grams.
