Description

If your ring could speak, what would it tell you? 
I, Object is a collection of short texts by jewellery objects, narrated to jeweller Stella Chrysostomou. Here, jewellery objects reflect on their relationship to the world, to each other, and with their human acquaintances (their makers, wearers, viewers, and owners).
These texts ask us to reconsider our attitudes to, and our thinking about, jewellery, and — the tables turned — to experience jewellery afresh. 

Reviews
