SO MINT! KNOT BY SI RUI WANG

Central Saint Martins, London '21

SO MINT! is a series of posts on fresh graduates in fashion, jewellery and design from around the world. Handpicked by Current Obsession.

Traditionally, pearl has been a symbol of delicacy and nature while metal embodies strength and artificiality. In Si Rui’s collection, she combines the oppositions through knotting so as to emphasise the symbiotic relationships between grace and force, nature and manmade.

In this way, she enables them to coexist in a way that benefits them all. Si Rui’s mixed design not only allows wearers to reimagine classical pearl jewellery, it also encourages them to recognise the idea of reciprocity in life.
