DAVID-ANDERSEN SIGNATURE

Co concept and production - Collective Oslo

“SIGNATURE IS NOT JUST AN ACCESSORY”

David-Andersens new chain design SIGNATURE is a form of personal expression. Inspired by the strong Scandinavian design from David-Andersen's archives, the collection is designed with a unique and recognizable character. SIGNATURE is designed and produced in Norway from 100% recycled gold and silver. Each piece of jewelery is put together by hand and is the result of Norwegian craft traditions and innovative design.

«Everybody´s got a chain that is their signature. It is a way of showing personality .»
– Nina Marker, model

Hysj, gullet (ta den ring og la den vandre)

BY Caroline Krager

Din minste samboer
får være med noen dager eller alle

flyter i løse lufta, lener seg mot deg
bittesmå, kom nærmere
de glitrende, brede smilene

smyger seg rundt i kroppens daler
på høydene, svever lette
og slenger seg tungt når hud møter hud
eller føtter treffer asfalt, dansegulv,

kanskje spiller de meg gode
de, de små og gyldne
eldre enn deg, meg
evigvarende om du vil ta den ring
og la den vandre
videre i familietreet

solen, vår største lampe,
den luringen, kiler oss under armene
og brøler oss i fjeset til
det eneste som finnes
er gult og skimrende, ja-fase,
tommel opp og diamanter
RSVP yes absolutt

varmt i håndflatens hulerom, kjølig i skrinet
plukker kostbart smågodt i gull og sølv
skaper små sammenkomster
lenker, kjedereaksjoner
av fnising rundt håndleddet ditt
hysj, gullet

mannen i månen, vi møtes igjen
kropp treffer laken og dyne,
smykker får hvile i fløyel og skrin

så lite som skulle til
og så mye det betydde

It’s your story

It’s your signature

David-Andersen invited a digital collaboration between photographer and filmmaker Sølve Sundsbø and the digital designer and artist Coline Cherry for one of the images in the SIGNATURE campaign. The fusion of Sølve's strong photography and Coline's 3D design formed a campaign that is innovative, and where SIGNATUR comes to life through layers of beautiful oversized 3D jewelery animations.

Photographer and filmmaker Sølve Sundsbø
"SIGNATURE" was photographed and filmed by the renowned Norwegian photographer and filmmaker Sølve Sundsbø. Sølve has garnered respect for its otherworldly concepts, stylistic versatility and openness to new technologies. His works can be seen in Other Vogue, i-D, Chanel, Gucci, Louis Vuitton.

Digital designer Colin Cherry
