Dieg Bou Diar 1 Necklace
This is a necklace. It was designed by Mieke Groot and metal worker: Moussa Thiam and glass worker: Edwin Dieperink. It is dated 2006 and we acquired it in 2022. Its medium is steel, lamp-blown glass, silver, thread, magnet (closure). It is a part of the Product Design and Decorative Arts department.
Groot produced a rhymthmic balance of forms through her collaboration with glassworker Edwin Dieperink in Amsterdam, who created blown glass globes, and Senagalese craftsman Moussa Thiam who transformed discarded tomato paste cans into brighty colored “beads.”
