Squama  Body Jewelry

Squama

The Squama is part of the Kerf Collection, a series that treats the body as a shifting landscape. Through precise kerf cuts, the silver gains fluidity, bending effortlessly to follow the body's natural topography. Its undulating surface catches and disperses light, creating a luminous gradient that shifts with movement. The interplay of incandescent highlights and satin-finished shadows accentuates the body's form, turning reflection into a living expression of light. The name Squama evokes an allusion to overlapping layers of plates, reflecting light in intricate patterns.

Squama Body Jewelry by Mehrnaz Zarrin Hadid was highlighted as a grand representation of fashion design by the A' Design Awards. Squama Body Jewelry received the Golden A' Design Award in Jewelry Design in 2025. The A' Jewelry Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design prize which rewards excellent design of rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, brooches, pendants, cufflinks, anklets and more.
