Three Layers Mink Collar, Fur Collection, 2000

Necklace in mink, sheared mink, leather, 18k gold clasp

The Fur Collection plays with qualities inherent in animal fur, leather and silk. By using purposefully corporeal. seductive and soft materials, materials that beg to be touched, the pieces draw on their power to invite the viewer to come closer to the body of the wearer, to pet, and to luxuriate in the work directly through the physical body. This is a selection of the full collection which was made possible by the generous support of the Dutch Fur Institute.
