The Architecture of Emotion: Inside Tsuzuri by Myriam Soseilos

Myriam Soseilos builds a modular, memory-led system of design with emotional depth and quiet engineering

Tsuzuri is more than modular — it’s a wearable architecture of identity and emotion, designed to adapt to the person, not the season.

At its core, Tsuzuri is modular — but its deeper function is emotional. Each element can be customised, added to, or adapted to represent a specific life event, memory or milestone. A birthstone added to a stopper. An engraved link shaped like a personal symbol. A re-cast motif honouring a moment of change. Everything is optional, and everything means something.

 

More than adornment, Tsuzuri becomes a kind of wearable journal — a system of emotional cartography made permanent in gold, gemstones, and movement.

Meet the Designer: Myriam Soseilos

 

Based between London and Cyprus, Myriam Soseilos is a multi-award-winning fine jeweller known for her intelligent forms, modular thinking and emotionally charged design language. Trained in both traditional benchwork and advanced 3D CAD, her work bridges the technical and the conceptual — often exploring how jewellery can behave as both structure and story.

 

Soseilos has built a reputation for transforming fine jewellery into systems — whether through kinetic mechanisms, material innovation or storytelling frameworks. She doesn’t chase trends. Her pieces are engineered to move, provoke curiosity, and reflect life as it unfolds.

 

Over the past decade, her work has earned significant industry recognition. She was named Creative Jewellery Designer of the Year at the UK Jewellery Awards in 2021, and shortlisted again in 2023 and 2025. Her early innovation with osmium — one of the world’s rarest elements — earned her the NAJ Innovation of the Year Award, and her designs have featured in Selfridges’ Project Earth initiative through La Maison Couture.

 

Her pieces have been worn by international clients and stocked at major retailers, but she continues to create on her own terms — building jewellery for those who seek meaning, change, and a bold kind of understatement.

The Pieces of Tsuzuri: A Modular Anatomy

 

Each piece in the Tsuzuri collection is designed not only to stand alone, but to transform through connection. The collection works like a language of parts — modular, interchangeable and intentionally open-ended. Earrings become pendants, short forms extend into longer silhouettes, and individual elements evolve with every clasp and link. This isn’t just a collection — it’s a toolkit for self-expression. Whether worn as a singular accent or assembled into a striking full look, every configuration reflects the wearer’s own aesthetic shift, movement, or mood.

 

Whether worn as a singular accent or assembled into a striking full look, every configuration reflects the wearer’s own aesthetic shift, movement, or mood. Below, we take a closer look at the individual pieces that bring Tsuzuri to life.

 


 

“This collection isn’t about what jewellery looks like. It’s about what it becomes.”

Tsuzuri Short Earrings

 

The core building block of Tsuzuri, these sculptural gem-set forms serve multiple functions across the collection. Worn alone, they become minimal architectural earrings — ideal for daily wear and designed with reversible faces. They can also be stacked to create longer, dynamic drops or used as stoppers to finish an open link. Engineered with invisible joinery and vivid stones, they’re made to connect, complete, or stand confidently on their own.

 

Tsuzuri Multi-Position Ring

 

This isn’t just a decorative band. The Tsuzuri ring is the system’s silent engine: engineered with an open, architectural structure that allows for fluid adaptability. It can be worn solo as a sculptural statement, but its power lies in transformation. The recessed channel within the design is made to accommodate future links, personal markers or custom-set gems — inviting each wearer to create something uniquely their own. Whether styled as a daily signature or built into a multi-part form, it functions as both a personal talisman and a central connector in the modular language of Tsuzuri.

Tsuzuri Dynamic Twist Earrings

 

These are the outliers — the only non-connecting elements in the Tsuzuri system. But their statement is no less bold. Suspended in a long, linear drop, the twist earrings are engineered to rotate fully along their vertical axis, introducing a hypnotic, kinetic rhythm with every movement. Where the rest of the collection builds through precision and joinery, these pieces rely on motion and visual tension. Their rotation disrupts the modular logic with purposeful flair — creating a sense of contrast, spontaneity, and bold self-expression. They don’t link, they stand apart. And that, within the architecture of Tsuzuri, is entirely the point.

Tsuzuri Two-Part Bracelet

 

The most overtly architectural piece in the Tsuzuri collection, the two-part bracelet is a study in balance and engineered elegance. Composed of two mirrored halves, it forms a fluid, continuous arc around the wrist — yet its symmetry is designed for disruption. The bracelet can be split at its centre and reconnected with other Tsuzuri elements, allowing it to serve as a bridge, a base, or a framing structure within the wider system. Its clasping mechanism is nearly invisible, maintaining a clean silhouette even as it adapts. Worn on its own, it’s bold but understated; when linked into a larger build, it becomes the anchor — the calm centre in a composition of movement.

Tsuzuri Pendant

 

At the centre of Tsuzuri — conceptually and often visually — is the pendant. Geometric, modular, and layered with meaning, it functions as both a focal point and a flexible connector. Its sculptural form is deliberately open, offering the wearer space to embed personal markers: birthstones, engraved motifs, symbolic elements, or abstract shapes charged with private meaning. Every surface becomes a canvas. But its deeper strength lies in its versatility. The pendant can be worn suspended, nested within a layered composition, or extended further using other Tsuzuri units — becoming the hinge between forms, or the statement that anchors them all. In a collection built around growth and change, the pendant is where the story settles, expands, and takes shape.

Built to Transform

 

What makes Tsuzuri remarkable isn’t its versatility alone — it’s the depth of thinking behind each transformation.

 

A client might start with a bracelet and later add a ring, connecting them into a single, reimagined structure. Or they might replace a stopper with a newly engraved motif, marking a private life event. For those who prefer abstraction over narrative, a gold-cut shape can be designed as a one-off — a personal symbol known only to the wearer.

 

Every change is physical. Every element intentional.

Beyond Materials: A Philosophy of Connection

 

Soseilos’s long-standing commitment to ethical craftsmanship is present throughout Tsuzuri. Recycled and Fairtrade gold. Lab-created and traceable diamonds. Sustainable sourcing, verified by Tracr, GIA Origin, or Sarine.

 

But Tsuzuri introduces another kind of sustainability: emotional longevity. These are not trend-led pieces. They’re built to stay in use, evolve in meaning, and deepen over time.

 

As Myriam puts it: “This collection isn’t about what jewellery looks like. It’s about what it becomes.”

 


 

The Jewels Club Take

 

Tsuzuri is more than jewellery. It’s a quietly radical rethink of what fine design can do — emotionally, mechanically, and conceptually. There’s no ornament for ornament’s sake here. Just structure, purpose, and the kind of elegant restraint that reveals itself over time.

 

For those seeking jewellery that mirrors how they move through the world — in phases, in moments, in memory — Tsuzuri offers an entirely new framework. It was great to catch up with Myriam in Hatton Garden this week to explore the collection in person and hear more about the thinking behind it.
