LAB
STRUGA World · III
The world of experiment and prototype.
Experiment, prototype, exception. LAB is experimental forms and pieces that allow themselves to be a prototype or a provocation. Here STRUGA also steps beyond jewelry — into clothing and object design.

LAB echoes the world around it — the language of nature, familiar objects, elements: pins, mushrooms, rabbits, carabiners of every size. Work here can run in a completely different style and address a different audience.
LAB is a zone of experimental drops and limited collections, clothing and interior objects among them. It is a forge of ideas: an experiment in LAB can lead to the birth of a new family.
FAQ
Is LAB a family or a world?
LAB is a world — the third in STRUGA — not a family. It is a container for experiment and prototype. The family inside it right now is EXPERIMENTAL, which holds the actual forms: Pills, BearRabbit, Drills, Mushroom, Suprematism. The world sets the mood; the family holds the objects.
What does LAB make besides rings?
LAB is where STRUGA steps beyond jewelry. Alongside experimental silver forms it runs clothing and interior object design, released as limited drops and small collections. The work here can move in a completely different style and speak to a different audience than the other worlds.
Is Living Silver the same as oxidizing?
No. Living Silver is a property: 925 silver without rhodium that darkens and shifts on its own with wear. Oxidizing is a technique — the piece is deliberately darkened at the start. LAB objects are 925 silver; the patina that forms is a map of use, not a defect.
Why does LAB feel less consistent than other worlds?
By design. LAB is a forge of ideas where a piece is allowed to be a prototype, a provocation or an exception. It echoes ordinary things — pins, mushrooms, rabbits, carabiners of every size. An experiment that lands here can become the seed of a whole new family.
