1st PLACE
Purchase of the jewellery for a value
of 300€ and a G-Silver voucher
of a value of 100€.

Modular long necklace.
Long necklace of 65 cm, on a chain of 130cm.
It is possible to wear this long necklace in various ways, thanks to the silicone beads between the rectangular medals that block the sections.
This gives the possibility to dress the back also.
The long necklace can also be worn like of an open scarf.
It can be worn as a tie by slipping a part between the chains.
The long necklace is composed of 10 sections, to evoke the 10 years of G Silver.
I was inspired by a piece that I created 8 years ago in the same spirit but fixed with rectangular mother-of-pearl, Tahitian pearls, gemstones and Sterling Silver mountings.

Creator

Charmaine Gouled

Give us three adjectives that describe you.
Generous in all forms, benevolent, tendency to procrastinate.

Describe to us what your first steps in creation were ?
Do you have a short story or anecdote to tell us?
I have always been manual, I like to paint, draw …
Then one day ! Like Obelix who had fallen into the magic potion, I fell in the pearls of Tahiti during a two-year stay in French Polynesia. Since 2007 I am a self-taught creator of jewellery made with Tahitian pearls, .

Do you have a creative project that has pleased you most in your personal, professional or academic career?
For 10 years I created and exposed dilettante. But with the frustration of not being able to go further because of lack of techniques, signing up with the AFEDAP was one of my best decisions.
