Emerald Torc

The torc is a single, rigid neck ring open at the front. It was mainly worn by men as a medal or trophy to demonstrate rank, strength, and power. It has roots in Mesopotamia, the Scythians, ancient Greece, ancient Rome, and finally with the Celts who are most identified with it throughout the Iron Age.

Once it is placed on the neck in its specific location, it automatically shifts the posture, hence the state of mind.

The emerald torc started as a private commission using the client’s Colombian pure vivid green emeralds.
