'Rolf's brain is exploding with creativity and he is quick to respond to a jewellery challenge. This work is typical of his genius, practicality and sense of humour in equal measures'.
- Louisa Guinness
Rolf Sachs’ Unchained, is a work that fits into his internationally renowned multidisciplinary practice with ease.
Reflecting an underlying philosophy which draws upon collective memory, the chain plays upon our perception of reality. Created with ready-made fastenings in mischievous combinations of silver and vermeil, there are 4 hidden 18ct gold units, the wearer is unaware of which components these are, and must play Rolf's game to determine which is which.
Readily adjustable to the wearer's specification, Unchained is a fitting addition to Sachs desire to play with form and function. At a full length of 150cm it can be divided up as the wearer desires into different length necklaces, chokers, belts or bracelets.
