It wasn’t too long ago that Racquel Honore’s line ANKH started to hit stores, but it has already made a lasting impression. Racquel’s line is composed of four collections, all of which prove to have significant inspirations. All of the collections have a characteristic that runs through each strand, that characteristic being vintage character. It is important to Racquel that she captures a specific moment in time and that artifacts are present, which represent that one split second. Racquel’s collections include Vagabond, Earth, Love, and Pollock. One of Racquel’s collections features puzzle pieces as the central tactic. The limited edition line features actual pieces of a 1960′s puzzle by Jackson Pollock. Though the puzzle piece jewlerey could be referred to as bulky, it has a certain elegance. More simplistic pieces feature color as their main deisgn detail and simplistic pieces of art that are placed as pendants on the chains. The line features earings, bracelets, and necklaces. Whatever it is, there is something for everyone.
