Crystal Clutch - Stylized Mao
About this piece
Red rays blaze behind a familiar hairline, rendered in a few hundred stones.
The crystal clutch, stylized Mao, is a contemporary piece of Primitive Fashion in Swarovski crystal. The design borrows the visual language of 20th century political poster art, with its bold sunburst and simplified portrait, and turns it into pop pattern. Amber crystals form the face and background, crossed by red rays fanning out from behind. Black stones trace the hairline, and grey and black crystals outline the collar of a buttoned jacket. A jeweled knob clasp sits on top of the softly rounded frame. It comes in size S.
Propaganda, recast as accessory, and much easier to carry.
