About the Item

Robert Lee Morris loved to mix architectural and organic elements, and this wide luxurious GOLD plated brass link is rich with mechanical shapes, herringbone woven with rounded bars. He makes sculptural art/fashion jewelry that is both sensually organic as well as architectural and engineered into liquid geometry. This is a classic 2x3 row Bar bracelet, composed of individual hollow rectangular blocks that are joined by long rivets holding the entire construction into a flexible wearable bracelet. Very dynamic, it is hypnotizing to look at flat, stretched out like a carpet of moving geometric forms, sliding and gliding against one another. and worn as a Bold Gold bracelet. Looking like a glamorous wide bracelet from the 1940's it also can be thought of as a classic modern piece. Never going out of style, this very wearable and dramatic link bracelet is a collector's item and will provide many years of joy. This is an example of Morris's Fluid Geometry concept, sexy architecture for the body.
