The Pigeon Blood Ruby Pendant by Aamina Juma

This artwork by fine jewellery designer and artist
Aamina Juma, subverts our natural perceptions of jewellery. Precious metals and gemstones, traditionally denoting wealth, give way to wool, challenging our assessment of worth.

Through her dramatic manipulations of material and proportion in her playful and joyful works, Aamina invites us to reassess the role of jewellery and how we determine its value.

The Pigeon Blood Ruby Pendant, made using tufted New Zealand wool, play with a surreal proportion and material of a timeless jewel – a ruby pendant: with the precious gemstone supposedly set in 18k gold. 

The Pigeon Blood Ruby Pendant sculpture from this
edition may differ slightly from the images shown, based on how the precious stone catches the light on the day you wear it or put it on display.

Aamina’s collection subverts our natural perceptions of jewellery. Precious metals and gemstones, traditionally denoting wealth, give way to wool, challenging our assessment of worth. Instead of the delicacy and sophistication of fine jewellery, Aamina employs a scale that takes her work into a playful, whimsical realm. Through her dramatic manipulations of material and proportion, Aamina invites us to reassess the role of jewellery and how we determine its value.
