"A View from the Asterix"
Sterling silver, gold plated. Rosewood lining. Made in 2024, Glasgow.
This box is inspired by the wreck of the Asterix, a Roman shipping vessel which was found emerging from the seabed in the waters outside of Guernsey’s harbour. The box features kinetic fish, which swim over a hand-engraved watery surface. Under that lies a rosewood lining inspired by the timber of the lost ship emerging from the sand.
