The “Soul of the World” Jewellery Symphony

Author of the project and Head Artist - Irina Karpova

Chief Master – Sergey Doroshenko

This work of art has been created for 2 years and 8 months by 24 craftsmen and artists.

During production process various jewellery techniques were used: among them are engraving, fretwork, carving, engineering assemblage, coinage and a unique technique of monetary engraving (just a few craftsmen are able to use it nowadays).

Materials: gold, silver, diamonds, sapphires, asterisks sapphire of 28 cts, spinel, smoky quartz, lapis lazuli, jade.

“Soul of the World” is like a lotus flower, which symbolizes the Universal Spirit. He sends power and grace to our endless world – you can even see it on golden steps decorated with diamonds. Our world full of vain, sins and suffering perceives this gentle grace and use its power, because it is a gift of the Universe. All that breathes and moves under the Sun is still alive because of God’s grace, love and power coming from Heaven. It’s not an accident that elephants, kind and strong animals, carry heavy silver Sphere of Heaven decorated with diamond signs of the zodiac. Because the elephants’ power keeps these signs in order. If you look attentively to the Sphere, you can find not 12 but 13 signs. The New one is the Snake-bearer.

Clock dial is in the centre of composition. It is inside the Sphere of Heaven, where every second and every minute is counted. It symbolizes the inexorable course of history and immortal Nature of the Universe. A big asterisks sapphire of 28 ct. weight sends its inextinguishable light to all diamond stars around. Under the newly made clock dial you’ll find old mechanism created in the middle of XVIII century of more than 150 years of age. It keeps old masters secrets and, like invisible thread, unites the past and the present.
