The Dauer Larva cuff features 47grams of a solid gold plated brass bangle for the wrist, initially hand-carved in wax. Dauer stands for the enduring and it is a description of alternative developmental stages of a certain type of worms, entering a type of stasis and surviving harsh conditions. Carved along its back, this cuff features the traces of the bodies of larvae, as a living reminder of all harsh conditions one can endure.
