These have been the most outstandingly popular design from Philip's recent "Bold and Beautiful" Range. Available in Shiny as shown, Heavily Beaten finish and Matt Beaten finish, Philip has recently added a Pendant to match any of the finishes on a Nitrol Necklace.
Nitrol is a magic modern product which is used for washers and seals in car engines. It is acid proof, heat proof and oil proof, so it stands up to all of those things the body throws at it and unlike silk or cotton cords, does not break down, nor fill up with body oils and become stiff and smelly. Philip cuts it to whatever necklace lengths you desire and fits Sterling Silver fittings. www.philipthornton.co.nz
Contemporary jewellery needs to be tempered with good design, fine workmanship and an understanding of the need for a piece to be both beautiful and wearable. I believe that jewellery is a language. Yes, it can and should, be something beautiful in it's own right, but each piece also tells a story about it's owner and it is contemporary jewellery that has by far the largest vocabulary.

Gothic Glory
Skull icons are making their appearance everywhere this season. They adorn handbags and shoes, scarves and shirts and costume jewellery of every kind. Philip has designed some gorgeous skull earrings and rings to compliment this theme including a range after Munch's "scream".
