DNA Double Helix

Science-themed designs are scarce in the Wild Bryde catalog, making this gold-tone DNA double helix an unusual find. The photo-etching process cuts away the negative space between the repeating base pairs, clearly defining the twisting ladder structure while keeping the earrings physically light. I appreciate how this piece demonstrates the studio's ability to handle precise geometric symmetry just as well as organic natural forms.
