As we finalised the details of our summer '24 collection, it became clear that we had more than just one release on our hands. We knew this year's lineup was strong, but the depth and detail of these pieces demanded more than a single campaign. They deserved their own spotlight, their own narrative. Enter Hydra: the first of three summer drops.
This first instalment focuses on eye-catching accents that complement a relaxed summer aesthetic. It allowed us to showcase the versatility of our jewellery alongside a timeless summer wardrobe, building on the hype from our sold-out debut caps drop. With a growing appetite for more CRAFTD clothing, Hydra highlights how gold and silver jewellery can be styled alongside different linens, bermudas, cuban collars, denims, and more—the kinds of fits we've been inspired by and the styles you might just see on the horizon.
This drop introduces four exclusive new pendants and fresh filigree pearls, each inspired by legendary Greek gods and goddesses. So naturally, the iconic white-washed buildings and crystal-clear harbours of Hydra, Greece became our backdrop.
These shoots always attract the curiosity of the locals, and this time was no different. We had the pleasure of styling some of our favourite pieces and upcoming caps on local characters, each with their own wisdom and stories to share. Truth be told, that’s one of the best parts of these campaigns—you never know who you’re going to meet. Keep your eye out for them later in the lookbook.
This 18K Gold Oval pendant is engraved with the detailed profile of the legendary Greek warrior Achilles. The engraving features his iconic helmet, adorned with a crest and laurel wreath—symbols of victory and honour. Hanging alongside the golden medallion is his finely detailed sword with an ornate hilt. Both pieces are suspended from a decorative, filigree-inspired bail and a classic 4mm link chain.![](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0467/9116/4053/files/Hydra_Collection_10_1024x1024.png?v=1720017177)
At the heart of this medallion, a mysterious figure stands surrounded by the grace of two women, representing love, lust, and desire. To the side, Eros, the god of love, adds a playful and mischievous touch. This golden pendant channels his playful energy, bestowing upon its wearer the gift of love, confidence, and romance wherever they go. ![](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0467/9116/4053/files/Hydra_Collection_12_1024x1024.png?v=1720017258)
