THE STORY OF THIS PIECE
The first form of the brand — where STRUGA began. The first form of the brand. STRUGA began with it — and so did the project’s central experiment: take one form and carry it across different types of pieces.

The original SIGNATURE ASYMMETRIC form cut from Winter Graphite carbon fiber — STRUGA's DNA in the palest, most frozen palette. Pure carbon, no metal.
Winter Graphite is one of six carbon palettes developed in-house: pure whites and silvery-tinted greys layered like frost on a dark core. This form launched the brand — the first SIGNATURE ASYMMETRIC object, here in a winter spectrum. CNC-cut from multi-layered matte carbon fiber, threaded onto a 75 cm suede cord. No silver, no hardware — the object is the material.
Ultralight, waterproof, permanent — carbon doesn't age. For those who want a quiet, glacial object on the body — brand DNA in winter light.
Material: pure carbon fiber — no silver, no hardware; the object is the material.
Palette: Winter Graphite, one of six STRUGA carbon palettes — cool whites and silvery-tinted greys.
Family / World: SIGNATURE ASYMMETRIC (CODEX) — the brand's first form.
Finish: matte, CNC-cut with sharp edges and recessed cuts, hand-finished; colorfast, does not darken or take patina — the counterweight to living silver.
Care: ultralight and waterproof, unbothered by water; carbon doesn't age.
About STRUGA. STRUGA is a brand of experimental minimalism in Dark Fashion, founded in Bali. Founders and designers — Dmitry Strugovshchikov and Ekaterina Strugovshchikova. Production: Bali and Stavropol. Most pieces are 925 sterling silver with natural patina or hand-patination; this object is in-house carbon fiber — stable and colorfast. A brutalist object.
Frequently asked questions
How much does the pendant weigh, and how long is it?
The pendant weighs 5 grams. It is solid carbon, so at that weight it carries more volume than silver would. The cord is suede, 75 cm long — the pendant sits on the chest.
Is this silver or carbon?
Pure carbon — no silver, no fittings. This is the Winter Graphite palette, one of six STRUGA carbon palettes: cool, grey-silver in tone. At STRUGA, carbon is the counterweight to silver.
Does the carbon darken or change over time?
No. Unlike silver, carbon does not darken and does not take on a patina — it stays as it is. It is light and unbothered by water. That is precisely carbon's role at STRUGA: a counterweight to living silver, which changes.
How is the pendant made?
The carbon is CNC-cut from sheet material to the SIGNATURE ASYMMETRIC form, and the edges are finished by hand. The finished plate is threaded onto a suede cord. There is no silver and no hardware.
What is the SIGNATURE ASYMMETRIC form?
It is the brand's first form — STRUGA began with it, and it carries the brand's central experiment: one form carried across different pieces and materials. The aesthetic came out of CNC work on sheet material: sharp edges, flat planes, recessed cuts.
