Royal College of Art graduate Marina Stanimirovic has paired gold with Corian to create this collection of geometric wearable objects.

French designer Marina Stanimirovic's Pearls Are Always Grey collection includes unisex brooches, bracelets and necklaces.

The chunky pieces are cut from Corian – a solid-surface material made from an acrylic polymer – using computer numerically controlled (CNC) technology and inlaid with nine-carat gold.

"I wanted to open a discussion about both precious and non-precious materials, gold and Corian, showing that both are needed to make the design work," Stanimirovic told Dezeen.

The large flat designs are formed in circular and arch shapes, from wide donut-shaped bracelets to delicate thin necklaces.

Brass, leather and silk complete the pieces, and both brooches and bracelets are designed to work in pairs, visually connected by the gold lines.

"Each of the pieces will always have something missing, or the mark of something missing," said the designer. "The golden line becomes the link, or a common space."

The only exception is the Lonely Bracelet, where the gold is applied in rings around its inner and outer edges.

The designs are made to order and signed on the reverse by the designer. "I would like people to connect with these pieces and experience them as very intimate objects," said Stanimirovic.

Stanimirovic studied jewellery design in France for six years before completing a master's degree at the Royal College of Art in London last year.

Pearls Are Always Grey is her first commercially available collection, which she believes fits into a new adornment style being created by emerging designers.

"Contemporary jewellery is very different from fashion jewellery or high jewellery," said Stanimirovic. "The young generation is now starting to push contemporary jewellery out of its own world. I am not denying or criticising other types of jewellery, but I am trying to show the public another type of jewellery – another door has to be opened."
