Graedance x Chinatown Country Club
by Adriano Batista
Graedance has teamed up with Sydney’s Chinatown Country Club for a special collection celebrating the Year of the Snake. The collection, called “Slither,” bridges cultures, generations, and the mystique of the serpent.
Inspired by the “13th zodiac,” Ophiuchus, and the upcoming Year of the Snake, this collection captures the essence of both traditions in wearable pieces. The pieces evoke the imagery of intertwined snakes in a graceful dance, embodying unity’s power and tension. “My mother, born in the Year of the Snake, inspired me to create jewelry that transcends generations,” shared Graedance founder Rong Chen.
Made from 18k gold vermeil and mixed metals, accented with peridot and ruby, the pieces reflect the concept of “two becoming one.” Brooches and bolo ties add a bold touch to the collection.
Some pieces feature a subtle “CCC” emblem, honoring the boutique’s influence. The collection celebrates the snake as a symbol of renewal, transformation, and timeless allure.
