The New York-based designer Dario Narvaez is creating jewelry with a hidden message, with the release of 'Invisible Love' -- a gorgeous necklace that explores the relationship between art, light and shapes.
The adorable necklace is constructed with metal casing, eliciting a more industrial feel from the wearer. At the front of the necklace is a small brass ring that appears more decorative than functional. However, when light hits the necklace at the right angle, it creates a heart-shaped shadow on the necklace's cylinders. The intention of this design is to encourage people to rethink perceptions how how jewelry can interact with its wearer, and those around them.
Both emotional and stylish, the Invisible Love piece aims to alter people's relationship with their jewelry. Photo Credits: designboom, darionarvaez
