Love is a (Medium) Thing Physical on The Standard Curdled Chain

Love is a (Medium) Thing Physical on The Standard Curdled Chain

Made-to-order*

The Love is a Thing Physical is a love heart shaped locket held together through magnetic force. The locket can physically hold and protect something of value, sentimental or physical, or simply act as a vessel to later fill or empty. Inspired through a lover's changing forms. 

Approximate measurements:
Locket: 4 x 4 cm.
Chain: 45 cm / 21”.

On the front of the heart is an engraving based on a drawing of three figures circling one another by Lowena Hearn.

On the back of the locket is an original poem by Jago Rackham:

Love became a thing physical,
shaped and weighted like
a pebble from a stony beach
nestled in a warmhot cheek.

Production

Made-to-order works are produced in studio and usually take 3 to 8 weeks before shipping, depending on scheduling, material, casting, finishing and hallmarking requirements. Rush timelines may be available by request for an additional fee. Please contact the studio for current timings.

Materials & Care

Works are made in the material specified on each product page. Recycled metals are used where available, with casting carried out by a specialist London foundry. Precious metal works are hallmarked under REBEKAH KOSONEN BIDE by the Goldsmiths’ Company Assay Office where required.

Keep dry and handle with care. Avoid contact with perfume, lotions, hairspray, swimming pools and shower water. Remove before sleeping, exercising or any activity that may scratch, knock or damage the piece. Gently wipe with a soft cloth after wear and store securely.

Do not ultrasonic clean. Earrings made with .925 silver or gold posts may be soft and should be handled delicately.

Alternative metals, plating and stone setting may be available by request and quoted individually. This can include platinum, palladium, white gold, rhodium plating, solid gold, or specific stone-setting requirements.
