Archaea Studios is a handcrafted silver jewelry and sculpture studio that explores the forms comprising nature's fundamental building blocks with a focus on structure, utility, and protection. "Archaea" refers to the oldest domain of life, encompassing organisms that thrive in Earth's most extreme environments. Designed and made by Jessica Shen, each jewelry piece, titled as “specimens,” investigates the connective properties between different parts of plants, bodies, and surreal environments.
