Notorious RBG
This stunning silver-plated chainmail collar is based on US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's iconic lace collar, and is a piece of history linked from silver-plated brass.
To create the Notorious RBG, I began by painstakingly hand-connecting over ten yards of silver chain, which I linked together in carefully ordered sections, using Japanese chainmail techniques that organized the tiny metal links along the bias for a lush creation that drapes delicately at the base of your neck like a sensuous silk scarf made of silver.
This astonishing piece is a sensory delight. Its design's sparkling radial symmetry measures approximately sixteen inches at the neck opening, and is adjustable for a secure and comfortable fit. The organic flow of its filigree-like links between your fingers has to be felt to be believed, and the hundreds of little silver links chime like bells with your movement.
The Notorious RBG is a stunning example of Iron Lace Design's goal to create lace from steel--what you see here is the exquisite culmination of intensive design and endless hours of work, an emblem of the glory of Iron Lace Design's unique combination of historical with innovative to create a truly wearable work of art made to bring you pleasure and beauty every day.
This utterly one-of-a-kind piece was modeled at the Royal Ontario Museum at the opening of the "Being Japanese Canadian" exhibit.
- As such, there will be minor variations in every piece and no two will be exactly the same.
