Composed of raw cotton, waxed thread, and natural sansevieria fibers that are hand-twisted into 84 individual knots, this powerful piece honors the Aztec women who donned such ornaments daily.

3. Chaîne d’Ancre Punk long necklace, Hermès
The Chaîne d’Ancre link, invented by the Hermès family in 1938, was reimagined to create this safety pin–inspired silver and rose gold necklace from the label’s “punk” line, which blends elegance with the perfect amount of swagger.
