Both the cuffs and the ring are made from sterling silver. The design of the cuffs and ring is industrial. The shape and folds of the jewelry gives the appearance of metal bolts and is similar to Gehry's architectual designs. However, despite the modern appearance and style of the pieces, the inspiration is said to have come from a much earlier time period. Gehry was inspired by rocks that Neanderthals cut.
The pieces are part of larger collecetion designed for Tiffany and Co. in 2006.
