The Modern Utpoian Maniamania jewelry collection embodies a free-wheeling attitude and a passion for reflection on the unknown and mysterious. The pieces are rendered from bronze and silver, which entangle with [black tourmaline, turquoise and aquamarine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boom-by-daniele).

Designers Melanie Kamsler and Tamila Purvis have a heavy focus on detail. Though simplistic, the duo’s looks tend to boast exquisitely minute accents. Rings are made to resemble [tangled roots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/untamed-nature), cuffs are perfectly engraved and bangles are elegantly distressed. The site describes the line, “Radial lines are traced from Californian communes and cults of the late 60s and 70s so to consider a philosophical dichotomy - hedonism vs. spirituality.”

The [saber-tooth charms and voodoo stone details](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/protect-collection) give the collection an astrological vibe. Maniamania is a perfect choice for the nomad rock and roll queen.
