Entry Description

In a distant world of scorching sands and silent galaxies, traditions still breathe. This necklace embodies the spirit of Arrakis: its spiraling form is a tribute to the mighty sandworm, lifeblood of the desert. A spring-like mechanism brings movement, echoing the creature’s pulse beneath the dunes. Inspired by Frank Herbert’s Dune (1965), it reflects Fremen culture, where water is sacred and symbols are survival. Black diamonds signify water’s rarity, brutalist lines honor raw technology, while the stepped geometry of Yazd’s Jameh Mosque minaret is directly referenced in its structure
