Golden Cities. Necklace, Earrings

Golden Cities. Necklace, earrings is an innovative jewelry collection that explores the architectural essence and cultural significance of major metropolitan centers through wearable art, created by designer Evgeniya Matsukevich. This sophisticated jewelry set, which earned recognition with an Iron A' Design Award in the Jewelry Design category, masterfully captures the distinctive skylines and urban silhouettes of prominent global cities such as New York, London, Tokyo, Paris, Rome, Moscow, Berlin, and Saint Petersburg. The design concept uniquely interprets the wealth and grandeur of megacities through precious metalwork, available in both yellow gold and silver variations, with meticulous attention to dimensional precision featuring a diameter range of 160mm to 120.5mm and a height of 2mm. The collection's philosophical underpinning reflects the emotional connection between city dwellers and their urban environments, transforming architectural landscapes into intimate personal adornments that serve both as fashion statements and symbolic representations of urban identity. The versatile design aesthetic allows these pieces to transition seamlessly from formal occasions to business settings, while the careful consideration of form and material selection demonstrates a sophisticated understanding of contemporary jewelry design principles. This project, initiated in Moscow in 2014, addresses a recognized gap in ideologically driven jewelry design, offering a fresh perspective on the relationship between urban architecture and personal adornment.
