Jewellery takes on essential silhouettes that skim the contours of the body in pieces by London-based design studio Dina Kamal. Its eponymous founder is driven by a desire for architectural forms in her designs, which draw curves in 18ct gold, punctuating broken loops with diamonds or sinking‘All our pieces start with what I refer to as “objects of fascination”, says the.
The smooth loop of the ‘Tube Torc’ necklace is inspired by the neck rings historically worn by men as a marker of strength – this piece encourages an awareness of form and posture. In the ‘Falling Water’ earrings, baguette diamonds in rivers of beige gold bring a fluidity to the stones. A grey South Sea pearl perches on the fluid curve of the precious metal in the ‘Venus Pinky’ ring.
‘My goal is always to create a piece that is structured yet sensual, masculine and feminine. I feel this gives a powerful balance and allows it to be subtle yet bold,’ Kamal adds. ‘I love to define the character of the piece. To expose its “soul”. There is a balance that I aim to reach so that the work is bold yet understated. Also, there is a balance to be found between the structural and architectural, and the delicate and sensual.
Kamal prefers to work in 18ct beige gold, otherwise known as raw white gold – ‘It is 18ct gold without copper, the true white gold,’ she says – with its understated sheen making it an elegant foil for the punctuations of diamonds. ‘Being an architect I always consider form, proportion, context, structure and beauty in everything I do. Most of all I consider how a piece or design can impact us emotionally.
