Primordial Yet Futuristic: The Jewelry of Shola Branson
Shola Branson, a London-based Anglo-Nigerian designer, creates avant-garde jewelry imbued with an irresistibly familiar charm
Luxury and minimalism. Future and primeval. Dualisms that rarely find the right balance but which London-based, Anglo-Nigerian designer Shola Branson has turned into his hallmark. Although the jewelry he creates has an avant-garde character, it also contains a classic elegance that exerts a reassuring, familiar appeal. Branson founded his eponymous brand in 2018, bringing a language of essential forms and evocative details to the contemporary scene. Satin-finished, textural gold with an archaic allure is the material he has chosen to give shape to creations designed to traverse time. Gems, often irregularly set, pay homage to the imperfect and organic beauty of the natural world.
