Onyx Vessel by Alexis Badiyi | Object III

Alexis designed three objects as part of our Chantelaine Capsule—pieces intended to be worn around the neck, held in the hand, pinned to the body, or styled however you choose. Each may be worn individually as a singular statement or layered in combination. Together, the works explore adornment as both utility and emotional anchor: objects worn not simply to decorate, but to hold, protect, and empower.

The Onyx Vessel, inspired by perfume bottles and lockets, centers a small round cabochon onyx, evoking memory, scent, and the act of carrying something unseen but deeply personal.

Each piece is handmade in New York City with a lead time of 4–6 weeks.
