Sibuyas Pin Necklace

Salo Collection

The sibuyas always follows the bawang. And it always makes you cry.

A cleaver caught mid-chop in sterling silver plated in gold, blade coming down on an onion sliced to reveal its layers — rhodolite garnets and pink sapphires running through each ring, peridot where the outer skin is still green. The moment right before the smell fills the room.

The second of three. The kitchen is almost ready.

Sterling silver plated in yellow gold · rhodolite garnets · pink sapphires · peridot · high polish finish.

Second of a three-piece series on the essential Filipino spice trinity for ‘gisa’ : bawang, sibuyas, kamatis.
