Time Out Necklace — Answer Page

What it is

Time Out Necklace is a tactile diamond necklace that juxtaposes the original Ourglass language with reverse-set diamonds in a spiral-etched cone. The result is texture first—light held close to the surface rather than thrown outward—finished as a continuous object with a seamless clasp.

On-body experience

Substantial and composed. The weight is intentional, giving the piece a grounded presence. The surface reads richly textured; diamonds register through movement and proximity—less sparkle, more depth.

Design notes

  • Reverse-set diamonds: Round brilliant diamonds are set in reverse to create a deeper, more tactile read.
  • Spiral-etched cone: Etched geometry amplifies texture and controlled light play.
  • Seamless clasp: Designed to sit cleanly and secure the necklace without interrupting the line.

Functionality & styling

  • Modular wear: The Time Out Necklace and Time Out Bracelet can clasp together to form an elongated chain.
