These hands, they want you to wear them.
I don’t know what it is about human hands, but I seem to enjoy the expressive movements they make and the positions they take on that can tell a bit about the person whose hands that are on the spotlight. That may sound a tad strange but it’s not that I sit and stare down a person’s hand like a zombie. The witnessing is subtle to avoid being construed as deranged and, more accurately, we kind of size a person up on an overall feel anyway, so the hands of a person act as an extension telling us their lifestyle and always, that interests me the most is their states of mind.
A pair of nervous hands would look and feel different compared to the hands of someone who is relaxed. Some hands look weighty, careless even and others – delicate and precise. Some hands apply more pressure to even the most basic activities like, writing, for instance. And some hands have a lighter approach even when holding something as heavy as a case of wine.
As my love for watching human hands has often triggered me to write something that relates to them, it’s no surprise that I practically stopped everything to ogle hand-shaped pendants in the jewelry world. Stumbling upon Dovile B. Jewellery’s collection of hand-shaped pendants, I am moved by its dark aesthetic, which is exactly the underlying theme of the collection ( called Phobia Of Darkness ). I admire the look of the hand pendants as they adorn a ring, bracelet, earrings and necklace. Something about the way they’ve been set and the appearance of the hands themselves make the collection riveting and unforgettable.

Through my conceptual and narrative contemporary jewellery I explore contrasting human emotions by analysing their fears and hopes, admiration and disgust, joy and sorrow. My signature style can be described as tactile and imaginative and always with a hidden meaning behind. I combine traditional silversmith techniques and self-developed silicone process to create unique, tactile, bold and abstract pieces of jewellery inspired by sea creatures, octopuses and underwater world.– Dovile Bertulyte
