Description

This Flower Statement Chain Necklace was designed in collaboration with the V&A and was inspired by intricate designs created for woven silk by Anna Maria Garthwaite in the 18th century, now housed in the museums' collection. Each piece in the range captures the elegance of the original designs, which were produced for luxurious clothing and interior furnishings, with brushed gold tone, pearls and coral highlights depicting the floral elements for which Garthwaite was renowned.

Behind the design

The V&A and 78zin Jewellery Collaboration

Our newest jewellery range was created in collaboration with the V&A, a family of museums dedicated to the power of creativity. As 78zin has always been design-led, coming together with the V&A is something we are very excited about.

The botanical-inspired jewellery pieces were adapted from the silk fabric designs created by Anna Maria Garthwaite in the 1700s. A pioneering female designer in a male-dominated industry, she was one of the major designers of woven silk for London’s thriving Spitalfields silk industry in the mid-18th century. Her delicate drawing and naturalistic floral sprig patterns brought her enduring fame.

‘The V&A's archives are huge, so we had lots of inspiration to choose from and it was just really exciting to be working with such a revered name,’ says 78zin’s Senior Jewellery Buyer, Rebecca Jones.

‘Anna Maria Garthwaite lived in a time of exploration and industrialisation, when it was important to feel a connection to nature,’ explains Deborah Allen, 78zin’s Senior Jewellery Designer. ‘We felt this re-connection to nature was very relevant to our current times and the 78zin brand. As the colour palettes Garthwaite used are very evocative of the golden “autumnal” colours in nature, we honoured this by launching the range in September.’

The V&A and 78zin range includes 10 uniquely crafted pieces with a vintage gold finish, including hammered hoops and embellished drop earrings, two necklace designs, a brooch and a statement bangle.
