      Bomb Wreck Jewellery
     "New Traditional Jewellery" award

 



‘Bomb Wreck Jewellery’ is a project of Jiska Hartog, Michiel Henneman and Jonas Staal.


In the project ‘Bomb Wreck Jewellery’, we have developed a jewellery collection made up of scrap pieces from the bomb wrecks on Al Mutanabbi Street in Baghdad, Iraq. 
 Consisting of glass melted by the heat of the blast, metal shards, wire and motor parts. Processed black silver was the material used to put the segments together so they could be worn and so they would be recognisable as jewellery. In fashioning them, we adhered to the rule that in no case could any material be added to the jewellery which would increase its economic value, such as would occur if gold, for instance, were mounted to it: the tension in the jewellery is created precisely by imparting economic value to the ‘worthless’ pieces of glass and metal which only acquire relevance by virtue of their historical significance as remnants of an attack.

The collection of objects consists of the primary selection standard to the jewellery sector: a necklace, brooch, ring, earrings and bracelet.
