There are pieces that adorn the figure and others that modify it completely the perception.
MEDUSA belongs to this second dimension. A headdress built through a succession of sculptures that develop in the space, defining height, depth and three-dimensionality.
The reference to the Medusa is freed from classical representation and translated into Aster Lab language: the snake is not a simple element
decorative, but it becomes structure, volume, rhythm.
The sinuous bodies are covered with a dense surface of crystals, completed from green accents and precious details that emerge between the different curvatures. At the base, pendants and ornaments expand the composition, creating a contrast between the verticality of the upper part and the richness of the decoration that frames the face.
A construction entirely entrusted to the hand
The complexity of MEDUSA lies in its architecture. Each element it is shaped, coated and assembled manually so that the different forms maintain their own volume and, at the same time, belong to a single composition.
It is precisely this combination of technique, time and precision that places MEDUSA in the Couture dimension of Aster Lab. Crystal processing follows curvatures one by one, transforming the
surface in a continuous pattern of reflections. Not a decoration applied to the structure, but an essential part of its design.
MEDUSA is not born for serial production. The complexity of the construction and the hours required for its construction define it of course exclusivity. It is a piece intended for those who seek something rarer in jewelry: a couture project capable of being developed around an image, a performance and to a precise aesthetic identity.
