The gem laden Collosphaera Huxleyi Müller radiolarian pendant is based on a microscopic sea creature which I’ve scaled and given the colors of the sea using blue and green rose cut tourmalines. The tourmalines are tension set between two layers.
Based on the radiolaria drawn by Ernst Haeckel for his 1862 book “Art Forms In Nature” which focused on creatures from the waters of the Strait of Messina.
