GUILLOTINE EARRINGS
A pair of extremely oversized golden guillotine earrings for the artist Simon Fujiwara. Similar earrings, featuring the heads of Queen Marie-Antoinette and King Louis XVI, were presumably sold during the French Revolution.
The sculptural objects, which are over 2 m long, were 3D CNC-milled and hand-gilded.
