Item Description

The design principle of material integrity and the inspired use of unexpected elements construct the foundation for Molin's aluminum, stainless and concrete designs.

Each piece of jewellery is the result of basic modern design ideals, where form follows function and minimalism becomes the aesthetic.

The Molin collection showcases a number of austere yet elegant necklaces and earrings. Each piece is created using traditional architectural materials, here transformed into timeless art. Concrete and stainless steel have never looked so good. The design is modern, the effect is unique.

Item Special Note

Mark Molin is a graduate of the Ontario College of Art & Design (OCAD) in Industrial Design and studied at the North Carolina State School of Architecture. To complement his industrial jewellery designs, Molin also creates a line of clean, contemporary indoor/outdoor furniture and multimedia canvases.

"When I am designing something for the collection, I view the design as a reduction to its basic elements."

Unity of a design is defined by the materials. By utilizing the iconic architectural elements of concrete and steel, Molin brings an unexpected elegance to his jewellery.

Balance is achieved through assymetry. The sleekness of Molin's necklaces and earrings represent minimalism at its finest. You are the focus; a Molin design simply accentuates your individual style.

Adornment meets architecture. Wearing a piece of Molin's jewellery speaks volumes of your spirit and sophistication. The cleanliness and precision of the Molin collection elegantly highlights the real you, with balance and refinement.
