The Afrika Round Long necklace is the sign that accompanies your decision to start again, adding a new chapter to your story.
Its form speaks of exactly this: many rubber threads are arranged in concentric arcs along 85 centimetres, each keeping its own line. It looks like a cascade of thoughts that arise close together and then open out, building depth without giving up any element.
Rubber gives the necklace its flexibility and softness, allowing the different layers to adapt naturally to your body: 60 grams of light volume. The elements joining the threads are cubic, while a practical resin magnetic clasp keeps the piece in place, with a single gesture.
A design conceived as a discreet and constant reminder in your everyday life, made with care.

Material: Rubber

Rubber

Soft and light, with shape memory: with a little care it stays as it was on the first day.

How to wear it. Keep it away from alcohol, acetone and solvents, and from strong heat. Many hours of direct sun will dull the colour over time.
How to clean it. A cloth dampened with lukewarm water and a drop of neutral soap, then dry it straight away. If it looks dull over time, it is the skin's natural oils: wipe it with a degreaser, then dry it with a soft cloth.
How to store it. Lay it flat or loosely coiled, never tightly folded, away from radiators and sunny windows.

For all jewellery

How to wear it. Put it on last, after creams, perfume and hairspray. Take it off before showering, swimming in the sea or pool, exercising and going to bed.
How to clean it. When you take it off, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth: a few seconds are enough.
How to store it. Keep it in its box, in a dry drawer, away from your other jewellery. The bathroom, with its steam, is the least suitable place.

Afrika Round Long Necklace

Chosen by those who select design for museums, from MoMA to MAXXI.

With you every day

At 60 grams, Afrika Round Long rests lightly. The rubber wraps the skin with a soft, discreet feel. Its finish plays with natural light, matt or metallic. Wear it to a work meeting or for a moment of rest. It adapts to every situation. When you touch it, you feel the threads one over the other. A gesture to remind you that you already have what you need to start again, adding a new layer.

The material, up close.

The Afrika Round Long necklace is made with rubber strands: 85 centimetres long, 60 grams. They are chosen for their malleability and contemporary look. Rubber adapts well to the body. It is comfortable and pleasant to the touch. Each strand keeps its defined form, contributing to the effect of overlapping layers without adding weight.

The strands are gathered by elements in a fine bar. These give structure to the upper part of the necklace. The design thus appears defined.

At the top, a magnetic resin clasp. It makes the piece easy to put on and take off. It is designed to be discreet, with a concealed magnet. It blends with the design without distracting.
