The Balance Collection aims to disclose the delicate and imperfect nature of balance, and its constant potential of imbalance.
Handmade jewelry in the age of mass production, inspired by the simplicity and the imperfection of the antiquity. Mihanikî is a jewelry brand that brings together the art of the antiquity with abstract forms. After her undergraduate education in Political Science at Boğaziçi University, Istanbul, Mihanikî’s creator Sema Kentel was trained in different jewelry studios in the USA. The classes on Byzantine history that she took during her university years, coupled with her long term interest in the antiquity has influenced her relationship to the art of jewelry, resulting in Mihanikî’s timeless, unvarnished, and imperfect pieces. Sema Kentel’s designs are named after the Ottoman Turkish word with a Greek origin, Mihanikî, meaning “spontaneously.” The ‘imperfect’ journey taken by the word from its original in Greek to Ottoman Turkish is reverberated in Mihanikî’s designs, which reach out to the classical times from the 21st century Istanbul.
The designs are handmade, their texture and color can differ slightly from the photograph. Refrain from contact with lotion, water, alcohol, parfumes and other chemicals. Brass. Diameter 1.6 cm.
All Mihanikî products are produced by hand, with special attention, and once they are purchased, they want to get the same attention by their new owners. Please store the products in their own boxes or separate from each other, thus preventing them from drawing each other and extending their life. To protect the gold color of the brass, we recommend removing it with a soft cloth after removing it (yes, whenever possible). Your brass pieces will have a more ancient color over time. If you want to avoid this ancient blackout, you can clean the plug with the sponge inside your box.
