PEARLS BEFORE SWINE
With the help of a long-time friend as a business partner, Himo Martin collects pearls that are considered imperfect by the jewellery industry. His favourites: Akoya and Tahiti pearls, which are then set in silver bases. Seeking an original look, he then works the precious metal by oxidising it or engraving it using unusual tools, such as medical instruments. As well as their ethical factor, the Pearls Before Swine creations are also sustainable, as they showcase fair trade pearls, stones and metals. Close to nature, the designer also occasionally includes elements such as wood in his creations.
And that's not the only way that Himo Martin expresses himself. Far from the tumultuous, fast-paced Fashion Weeks, the Canadian jeweller does not release his collections according to a specific season; instead, they are dictated solely by his own inspiration. The Montreal-based craftsman works on all his jewellery alone (with the help of an assistant) in his Vancouver workshop, hand-making pieces that are increasingly striking and rich in emotion.
