ORE

Ore - fine jewellery and objet d’art colliding rare and extra-terrestrial materials to embody place, time and movement. Ore emerged from an investigation into how luxury could be understood, and envisaged in a digital art context.

LUCY is the first piece: a hand-made ring fashioned from 18-carat gold, olivine crystals etched from Pallasite meteorite, and Vantablack®. Each ring has a connection to a single white dwarf star – giant diamonds in deep space weighing billions of carats. As the Earth orbits the sun and the star reaches its zenith, the meteorite within LUCY glows.

LUCY’s elements are shaped into an elegant spherical form that encapsulates gold-plated micro-circuitry. The team works with fastidious hunters who comb landscapes to find Pallasite Meteorites that have crashed to Earth, and collaborate with master jewellers in London’s Hatton Garden to select, cut, and polish each piece.
 
Bespoke technology embedded in the ring’s core connects LUCY’s custodian with an assigned white dwarf star. Ore’s memory logs and archives the custodian’s position wherever they are in the world at the moment of illumination. It’s a thrilling reminder of the allure and vastness of the Universe.
 
LUCY’s itinerant journey can be played back by future generations. Its path is traced over days, years and centuries, and anticipation of the recurring event inside the ring builds a personal relationship with the star that goes beyond aesthetic appeal to become a treasured heirloom.
