Skyscraper

This collection of architectural jewelry is inspired by the 60 story neo-gothic Woolworth Building in New York City. An architectural feat of it’s time, it was the tallest building in the world until 1930.

We were drawn to the Woolworth Building’s 3000 exterior windows, capped with gothic revival intricacies. We simplified the window’s shapes and transformed them into a lace-like pattern. From the cruciform lobby, we found inspiration in the elevator’s graphic exterior. Tall cuffs and long earrings are a nod to the history of the Woolworth building.
