Abstract (en)

The ornament consists of a number of interchangeable decorative modules (1A, 1B, 1C) that can be worn or used on their own or grouped together. Each module has two contact surfaces (3, 4), one of which is studded with equally-spaced permanent magnets (8), while the other is of a ferromagnetic material for the magnets to adhere to. The modules can be decorated, for example with gems, precious metals or enamel.
