THORN AMULET

Twenty-four one-of-one objects in raw tourmaline and aquamarine, unplated 925 silver. All sold: an archive of what was made — sizes, weights, prices.

About this section
  • Twenty-four objects: twenty-two mono earrings from 2.3 to 7.0 grams and two necklaces, 9 and 12 grams
  • All twenty-four are sold. Each stone was raw and existed once, so this page is an archive — a record of what was made, not a shelf
  • The stones: raw tourmaline in green, grey, pink, purple and transparent, and raw aquamarine, set in the shape they grew in
  • Material: 925 sterling silver, unplated. Patina is a map of wear, not a defect
  • They sold from $130 to $250. A piece close to one of them, around a new raw stone, can be requested: the price and timing are agreed with you, and it ships worldwide

A spiked capsule holding a raw, wild-grown stone: Thorn Amulet is a type inside the AMULET family of the RITUAL world, not the THORN family of CODEX.

Can you still buy a Thorn Amulet?

Not one of these twenty-four. Every object here is sold, and none of them can be remade: the stone inside was raw, uncut and one of one, and the next raw tourmaline will not repeat the one before it. The page stays up because it answers what the grid cannot — what this form is, what it weighed, what it cost.

What repeats is the form, never the stone. A similar piece can be requested: we build the split capsule around a new raw stone and make it close in look, size and finish, with its own pattern and tone. The price and timing are agreed with you; it is made by master silversmiths in the Bali workshop and ships worldwide.

If you want a THORN silhouette you can order today, it stands one family away. The THORN family holds seven objects — a ring, bracelets, a chain, an ear cuff and earrings — made to order in 2–4 weeks, often sooner, in the same unplated 925 silver.

What was in the collection: sizes, weights, prices

Twenty-two of the twenty-four objects are mono earrings — one ear, not a pair. The gram figures below are the ones published on each product page; the prices are what the objects sold for.

Type Objects Weight Stone Sold at
Earring S 7 2.3 – 3.9 g Raw tourmaline, raw aquamarine $130 – $160
Earring M 9 4.9 – 5.4 g Raw tourmaline, raw aquamarine $185
Earring L 6 5.9 – 7.0 g Raw tourmaline, raw aquamarine $217 – $220
Necklace 2 9.0 and 12.0 g Raw stone, pink and green $250

Heaviest against lightest is a factor of three: 2.3 grams in the smallest earring, 7.0 in the largest. Width reads in a photograph; after an hour on the ear only mass is still speaking.

The amulets of this family are very different — from the quiet and classic, in a precise Japanese reading of minimalism, to the large and voluminous that make themselves heard.

The most expressive is the THORN amulet: its form is like a torpedo cut in half, as if found in the earth after thousands of years, with a crystal grown inside. It is an homage to Daniel Arsham.
