I'm obsessed with Tom Binns jewels. I'm not the only one, his designs have been worn by an interesting variety of fashionistas...from Cate Blanchett and Michelle Obama to Lady Gaga.
I think his pieces are simply put - stunning. They're works of art and admirable as standalone objects let alone as part of an ensemble. I've been lusting in particular for the top right Hand-painted Swarovski crystal necklace below ($715). It feels more realistically wearable for my everyday life. Though I dream of the days I have the lifestyle, shopping budget and appropriate event to wear his massive bunches of pearls and crystals, or the lower right Ethno Teknik necklace ($2,175).

For now I'm hoping he decides to collaborate with a mid-range brand to provide his beauty to the masses...thoughts on an interesting collaboration partner for Tom?
Tom himself describes his inspiration as follows "...creative inspiration was and remains the early twentieth century Dada movement, amongst whose themes were deliberate irrationality, anarchy, and the rejection of standard beauty and social organisation." Art from the Dada movement is often classified as nonsensical, rule breaking, and whimsical. The images below and the pieces on his website surely embody these characteristics.
