Carmen Herrera produced this matte silver 'Horizontal' Brooch/Pendant in 2012, a piece which echoes the formal simplicity that was typical of her style at this time. It was made in collaboration with the well-known Spanish goldsmith and jewelry designer Chus Burés, who said that his relationship with the artist was one 'forged under the sign of freedom and creativity’.
'[Our] first working session turned around a geometric drawing that she had just finished; a square in a rhomboid position [called] 'Horizontal' with a kind of cut in the center, that inspired metal and color. I did a test and Carmen loved it and from there everything went flowing smoothly,' Burés wrote in 2020.
