'Yapada' pendant necklace by george bosnas from greece

There’s a great history about Matsuyama Castle, the most famous part of Matsuyama City. Really interesting to mention is that the castle was built in 16 03 and survived through various Lords, lightning strikes wars and bombing. Focusing on the idea of lasting I wanted to get the most out of flower. The most powerful moment of flower is when you give it to the person and she touches it. That exact moment the giver feels glad for giving and their receiver feels happier for the gift. Thought the exact moment the flower is used as a connection between two persons. I tried to find a way to capture that glorious moment and Make It Last Forever like the Matsuyama Castle. Translating the idea in a piece of jewelry I designed a minimal necklace pendant. A main cylindrical part that resembles the flower's body, with two curved parts that resemble the touch of giver and receiver. Yapada, the Greek work for "forever", comes in 24k gold, platinum, rose gold and a limited Matsuyama black rhodium edition.
