Together, these creations exemplify platinum’s impressive versatility while embodying an enduring sense of sophistication and wearability.

David Rees and Ron Anderson, the visionary founders of TenThousandThings, shared their enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating, “Platinum possesses an unparalleled presence. We appreciate working with platinum for numerous reasons, particularly its high-polished color, which is our favorite metal. It exhibits a magical quality unlike any other metal. We are especially fond of the dark contrasts and the radiant glow achieved through meticulous polishing of platinum.”

Jenny Luker, President of Platinum Guild International USA, the trade organization supporting Platinum Born, commented on the partnership: “This collaboration illustrates how platinum can inspire designers to craft jewelry with extraordinary depth, movement, and resilience. TenThousandThings possesses a remarkable talent for transforming beauty into organic forms, making them the perfect partner for Platinum Born’s inaugural designer collaboration.”

The collection’s minimalist designs accentuate platinum’s substantial feel and visual richness, resulting in pieces that are both sculptural and effortlessly wearable. Each item is conceived for everyday luxury, blending a modern sensibility with the timeless attributes that have cemented platinum’s status as one of the world’s most coveted precious metals. In North America, Suna Bros. is the exclusive distributor for Platinum Born.

The collaboration offers distinct pieces with the following retail prices: the necklace is priced at $35,040, the bracelet at $12,276, the long earrings at $8,400, and the short earrings at $2,784.
