Elliott Metal is born of many worlds: of burning metal and rubber, of retro cars and Brutalist sensibilities. Behind the hammer and torch is New Zealand born silversmith Gabrielle Elliott. Having been surrounded by the world of machinery since a young age, the workshop has always been a point of return and inspiration. Silver is cut, formed and finished with the same presence, bass and roar of a Ferrari Daytona, leaving us with fluid shapes designed to be worn and seen, but nevertheless modest and cleverly understated.
While there is a conventional type of masculinity imbued into all of these creations, they are also pieces tempered with quiet elegance; silver floating in a modern unisex space, one that resists the notions of prettiness and banal simplicity.
