Cosmos
‘Cosmos’... is a Constellation.
When I am drawn to the extraordinary, a jewel like this appears. This one-of-a-kind necklace is related to one of my other interests the Universe, or constellations — and this is a necklace that depicts the latter.
I have been fascinated by the Universe since I was very young. The stars, the planets, the vastness of the cosmos — they stirred my imagination early on. As a child, I would look into the Milky Way and invent shapes, stories and worlds of my own. That sense of wonder never left me. It found its way into my work, and over time inspired me to invent this particular form: a shape that allows stones to exist together like a small celestial map.
In this necklace, I brought together eleven raw stones, each with its own presence, colour and energy. Amongst them you will find rubies, brown quartz, aquamarine, mica, chrysocolla and more. I created a place for each stone individually, adjusting their positions and proportions until the balance felt right. That part of my process can take considerable time. I keep moving, looking, refining — almost as if I am mapping a constellation — until the composition settles into itself.
This piece belongs to my Conversation Pieces collection and more specifically to the Fascination series. Each jewel in this series carries its own identity, and because of her beautiful colour range, she adapts beautifully to your mood and you can wear her slightly longer or short as in a choker. She comes with a rare kind of presence — her originality, and the quietly radiant quality makes her that piece that you love to wear as much as possible.

Welcome to my artistic world. Each piece you see here is a unique creation, born from my passion for combining natural stones with original designs. Every jewellery piece tells its own story and is personally created by me in my studio.
Your chosen piece comes in its own special jewellery box, which I designed in collaboration with artisans in Rome. Made with natural materials, each box features our signature colours, based around a mysterious midnight blue combined with other delicious colours.
The size shown is available. While I may be able to adjust sizes for certain designs, each modification is approached as thoughtfully as the original creation to maintain its artistic integrity. Please enquire about any possibilities or you could consider a personal assignment.
Every piece comes with my personal Certificate of Authenticity, marking it as an original Sheila Westera London creation.
