Brass Open Collar

Hand-formed solid brass collar by Formina in Portland, Oregon. Meant to be worn and shaped to the body.

The collection is inspired by mechanical and everyday bodies—Formina explores the interaction of the body and it’s adornments through hand-formed pieces.

Formina draws on ancient and traditional craft and jewelry techniques where a non-standardized system of fabrication allows for unusual and interesting creativity in design. This historical lineage is used as creative inspiration to reimagine the ways in which jewelry can be worn in everyday life.
