When her grandmother died, Damaris Durrleman got hold of some silver cutlery. Their history was unknown; in a family marked by the sufferings of war, one did not speak of the past. She wanted to give them a second life, a new meaning, by creating a piece of jewellery for each member of her family. By combining her two worlds, design and jewellery, she created a unique piece of jewellery for each person, embodying in the material the specific memories that were shared with them. An element of randomness has been introduced into each piece, and a fragment of the past object preserved; reflections of the randomness of life as it renews and perpetuates itself.
