Fercupium Pendant with sapphire from the Revival collection by Stanislav Drokin

EDITOR'S REVIEW

• Stanislav Drokin, a renown jewellery artist, designer, gemologist, winner of numerous Ukrainian and international competitions and a member of the National Union of Artists of Ukraine, has been experimenting new forms and colour combinations of gemstones for more than 30 years, in his laboratory in  Kharkiv
• Drokin has found a sharp new creativity and purpose amongst the devastation of his city and his life. He longs to return to the high jewellery of his peacetime past that is art for art’s sake, but while the war still rages he remains committed to using his talents to ensure the world does not forget about Ukraine
• Stanislas Drokin has used shell fragments in his Revival collection of pendants
• The shards, left in the form he finds them in, are darkly beautiful, accented with clusters of melee gems
• Set with sapphire and steel fragments of a free-form russian projectile 
• Bronze
