Dear %%voornaam%% %%achternaam%%,

This month we pay special attention to the ‘Sample Series’ jewellery by rENs in part two of the ‘NewspaperWood special’ series, in which we will highlight a specific NewspaperWood product each month.

Next to that we have planned some exciting exhibitions ...
so lots of possibilities to come and see the NewspaperWood product collection! We hope to welcome you there.

Kind regards, Arjan & Anieke

p.s. from now on, the ‘Sample Series’ jewellery is in stock and ready for order! Have a look at our website for sales or contact us for more information.


NewspaperWood special:
'Sample Series' by rENs

rENs regards NewspaperWood as an archive made of characters, words, sentences and stories. The archiving, storage and filing of information is articulated in the design of their products as well as in the NewspaperWood material.

Stories from one newspaper, one day, are being processed into one material. Embedded in brass, a small part of this ‘archive’ becomes wearable as jewellery.

The engraved code at the bottom of the jewel refers to the dimension of the sample plus the date of the used newspaper this particular piece of wood is made of.

‘Sample Series’ is available in five different sizes: Ø30, Ø40, Ø50, Ø70 and Ø110 mm. Every jewel comes in a nice packaging with a doublé necklace, a shine cloth and a piece of sandpaper.

Prices from €85,- to €185,- (depending on size)

NewspaperWood is a concept by Mieke Meijer, developed and licensed by Vij5. The product ‘Sample Series’ is a design by rENs commissioned by Vij5.
