STREET CHIC. THROUGH A NEW LENS   |   2 0 1 5  

A worn basketball found deflated in a parking lot, transformed into a powerful statement piece. The skin or ‘hide’ of the basketball has many similar qualities to leather, making it an ideal material choice for breaking boundaries in the world of accessories. The basketball skin is adorned with hand stitched crystals, silver metalwork, and hundreds of welded straight pins. The combination of found, discarded material with fine crystal embellishement creates an exciting juxtaposition, both visually and conceptually.
