The INNATE collection, designed for both men and women, is comprised of six pieces, all featuring the African Rove Beetle. Each piece is entirely handcarved, including over 14 hours of wax carving – a timely but very hands-on creative process, resulting in a realistic and lifelike beetle.
“The beetle is special to me because it is such an underdog, in the insect world. It’s the only creature in the world that can lift 50 times the weight of its own body,” explains James.
The collection includes an oversized Rove Beetle necklace and smaller pendant necklace, a large cuff and smaller bracelet, drop earrings and ring, in 18k yellow gold, white gold or rhodium, each with natural gemstones.
