The Jewelry Drops

THE JEWELRY DROPS

Young artists and designers with a common deep interest: telling their own way of seeing the world through jewelry. This insert in the Huesers magazine is therefore an in-depth analysis on artist’s jewelry. Different for nationality, cultural background and also in the materials and working methods, they carry out a personal research on the world, that is presented as a series of Drops.

The research starts exactly from the daily life, from the analysis of the historical moment we are living in, as in the work of Phoebe Dao (United Kingdom), which takes the symbol of the last two years, the surgical masks, and brings them back to art.

There is also a deep interest in the human body, among those who look for a connection between this and the jewels. Bianca Kazor (Germany) blends precious stones with a geometric design while Maria Gabrieleva (Canada) processes a flexuous research in her bracelets, that wrap the wrist with a natural material, wood. Or again, like the curves of the unisex jewels by David Miralles Alberola, which proposes aerodynamic models able to speak with marble.

On the other hand, there are those who search for different materials and textures, incisive and sharp, that bring back the complexities of the psyche in objects, such as Réjane Pratelli (USA). Margaret Greenhill (Chile) instead tells stories that would otherwise be lost with time, like the jewels of Marek Husovský (Slovakia) who tells unique stories in unusual handcrafted jewelry. The wearable art, the jewel that becomes a sculpture, like the works of Simona Mele (Italy) or Joey Rose Cardoso (USA), able to alter the body and distort it to create a new vision.

Each artist has a QR code that allows those who browse these pages to connect immediately to OVERJEWELS.com, the first social commerce dedicated to jewelry’s professionals. Through the platform you can stay up to date on the artist’s news and proceed with the purchase of jewelry.

OLGA ROZENBERG

An Israeli jewelry designer, Olga Rosenberg has a style that emphasizes natural materials like silk and wool, glass beads and pearls. Her art was influenced by growing up in a Russian city along the former Silk Road, where camel hooves rolled on the hot deserted streets. Her designs are handmade into unique pieces of art at her home in Haifa and reflects her colorful influences from an intersection of cultures and experiences.

Threads with glass beads are circling around the pearl creating an illusion of a huge star exploding in space. Multiple layers of colorful nets are sewed to the mohair imaginary galaxy, and a silk strip with unique orange, black and white pattern ties the whole necklace together.

2. A festive trail of blue and turquoise beads leads to the warm blue heart beating in the middle of a ring surrounded by fire-brick-red nets reminding of a large wild bird that shows off its royal wings. Two thin red beaded threads coming from the bottom of the ring look like the bird’s long legs. What kind of dance is it? A ballet? Maybe swing? Or maybe even a tango? It’s up to you to decide. the earrings are ready to go out with you on any cheerful occasion.

MAGDALENA PILLAI

An Eco Artisan Jeweler trading as Vspora Art, this is what Magdalena Pillai is. “Nature leaves her breathless and she wishes her work pays tribute to nature. She want her creations to breathe a life of their own. Inspired by her inner natural and cultural world, she hopes to bring us all closer to one another including nature. Her designs become a part of the wearer creating a personal and unique story. She chooses to use recycled materials as much as possible.”

1. This is a unique one of a kind pendant made from an amazing blue raw Australian opal and recycled sterling silver. Opal is an emotional stone and reflects the mood of the wearer. It intensifies emotions and releases inhibitions, encouraging both freedom and independence. Opal enhances cosmic consciousness and induces psychic and mystical visions. It stimulates originality and creativity. It encourages an interest in the arts. Wearing Opal brings loyalty, faithfulness and spontaneity.

2. The Ouroboros is an ancient symbol depicting a serpent or dragon eating its own tail. Originating in ancient Egyptian iconography, the Ouroboros entered western tradition through the Greek magical tradition and was adopted as a symbol in Gnosticism and Hermetism and most notably in alchemy. The Ouroboros is often interpreted as a symbol for eternal cyclic renewal or a cycle of life, death, and rebirth. I have paired the Ouroboros with raw Australian boulder Opals.

OLESYA NESTEROVA

/RUSSIA @vseprosto_ok

This 58-year-old artist is an engineer. She has been creating jewelry since 2019. Yes, this is a short time for a jeweler, but a huge time for a person who has found her vocation in the second half of her life. She creates jewelry using metal clay technology, because that allows her to sculpt jewelry with her own hands, breathing a piece of her soul into them. Her jewelry is, first of all, the style of a big city with its speed, eternal movement and the desire not to go unnoticed.

1. The most important miracle on earth is BIRTH! Birth can be anything: life, thought, feelings, ideas, love, understanding... But the most important thing is the BIRTH OF LIFE! How does it feel to witness this miracle? Tenderness, boundless love, happiness, joy, the desire to protect from everyone and everything! This is a tsunami of feelings that drowns out everything else in us! And we are ready to do everything in our power for this new life, and even more. Because this is THE MAGIC OF LIFE!

2. We all have our own way, and we all search and find it by ourselves. Here you are alone, here you will not be prompted, no one will help nor choose for you. And even if you let them choose for you, it is still your choice, your path, your life line. You go from point A to point B all your life, and then to C, D, and so on. You are striving, making an effort to reach the next point. And your life line is no longer a line, but a curve, sometimes smooth and sometimes sharp.

Constant unique, different and the incredible truth that there is nothing like two exactly same things in this world. All these things are pushing him to create raw jewelry, which has not been printed on a 3D printer, or made by machines like yellow rubber ducks. Human beings are unique, all persons are original at their best and that is why all of his natural jewels are made for specific clients. All his work is made using artisan goldsmith technique.

1. Ring “Human soul”. This ring is made from white and yellow 14k gold. It weighs 21.85 g. With this piece of jewel it is the same as with a soul. It is strong and fragile at the same time. It is full of feelings yet sometimes so empty. It is running forward and staying at the same place. It is something ever-changing and fascinating us all the time. He made it just for an extravagant soul.

You have your heart in your hands.

His heart is full. The beauty is that it is still growing. Every day his heart is bigger and bigger. He is ready to fill it. All the time. This is life. God gave him two hands and today he is holding gold with them. With his heart filled he crafted this ring. And this ring tells him that you have a heart, too. A heart to fill with love.

4. “Beauty is flower- wisdom is stone.” (Valeriu Butulescu)

In spring love is everywhere. In a meadow you can smell flowers. Forests are full of a new green color. Our hearts blossom. They should. Especially in the spring when we fell in love with somebody. And every other spring, too. Love is something you need to fight for. It is beautiful to be in love in spring. It is beautiful to fall in love with your wife every spring again and again... She should have a lot of spring rings from you.

5. Sometimes life is hard. At some point you do not want to carry it in your hands anymore. Sometimes you simply are not strong enough to wake up, smile and carry on. Sometimes you have no energy at all to fight your apathy. But there is somebody who can breathe a soul into your everyday life. For him it is God. For you it could be someone you let love you. To love you with no conditions. It is up to you.

6. Everything is changing. The whole world is in motion. Only beauty is still, intact, unchangeable. It is there until you remember it, enjoy it, focus on it. If you look closely, it can show you all of its

colors and tell you about all the secrets that it is hiding. The world is full of beauty but we are not always prepared to see it. Sometimes the key is to close your eyes and let your heart look at it.

JULIANE BUENO

The Brazilian designer from Curitiba, Juliane Bueno, is specialized in diamonds and founded the high jewelry label bearing her name. She tells stories through her jewels inspired by the Italian high jewelry, the transition of art periods, and the materialization of desires and dreams. Jewelry from artisanal and exclusive production, handmade by goldsmith, by the looks of Juliane Bueno. She creates unique and exclusive collections containing from one to ten pieces each.

1. For this special collection the designer Juliane draws a rectangular ring with a mix of textures and colors; the top of the ring is in straight yellow gold and matte white gold representing the evolution of the design and bringing the grace of being different. It is a very versatile piece that can be combined perfectly with the earring of the same collection or with other pieces from other collections by the designer.

2. The collection N. Oro is inspired by the frames of the neoclassical period with the subtlety of the contemporary one, the art of mixing periods and materializing into pieces turned in the designer’s trademark. With two colors of gold and different textures to symbolize the transition to the new change and the grace of the difference of being unique. This piece is the earring of the collection, a contemporary and timeless jewel.

3. The collection Neo.D brings the lines that are the trademark of the designer Juliane Bueno, transcribing the lines of the neoclassical period with a contemporary look, mixed with one of her biggest passions, the oval cut Diamond. The ring is made of yellow and white gold completed by an oval diamond piece right in the center with 0.70 carat within the color D and dazzling depth. This collection is made by one single piece - the ring.

4. The ring of the collection is made of striking lines in yellow gold and a Brazilian emerald handpicked by the designer Juliane Bueno. The emerald, 7 mm by 5 mm, brings elegance and

power to every and any occasion and any look. At same time it conveys the fluidity of the Sardinian sea, which is the inspiration to this collection: a unique, eternal and timeless jewelry.

1. It is springtime in the northern hemisphere. Raindrops fall from the sky as the fields are prepared for summer. Little flowers bloom in Minnesota, coloring and perfuming the environment. The tiny hairy four O’clock (Mirabilis albida) tenderly receive the raindrops, which gently slide to the soil. Life, then hiding from our eyes, is back to amaze us and feed the wild critters. Soon it will be summertime.

2. As springtime comes in the northern hemisphere, autumn brings new colors in the southern one. These colors, though, are not just those of the falling leaves. In South America the majestic Ceiba speciosa blooms delicate flowers, in many shades of pink. As the golden sun lights them, they amaze our eyes. Soon, these flowers will turn into big seed pods, delicious food for birds and other animals. The sky may be gray, as the winter approaches - but there are still many colors.

KAZUHITO SOMA

He was born in Aomori Prefecture, Japan. We have launched a brand that makes wedding rings and engagement rings. Ever since he first saw the aurora, he wondered if it could be expressed in metal. One day when he researched a miraculous technique that no one could do and experienced many failures and setbacks, inspiration that he had never experienced ran all over his body and made a gradation ring called Aurora. He will never forget the events. He wants to spread it to the world.

1. The color gradually changes from green gold to rose gold. In other words, the gold content varies depending on the location. The metal itself, not the plating, creates the gradation. In Aomori, apples are the best in Japan, so the motif is to express the wishes and thoughts of the wedding ring as they mature from green to red apples. The appeal of AUROA (gradation ring) is that it can be expressed so far just with metal.

3. It will be a gradation from yellow gold to black gold. There is no doubt that this will also be attractive with its unique hue. The meaning and wishes of the wedding ring may be a life full of affection that is not lacking, like the full moon. As an eternal proof that the moonlight will illuminate the two persons forever. Dark darkness in black. The illuminating light is expressed in yellow gold.

2. Fantastic color beauty for everyone. The color of the ring changes on a daily basis. Use and combine different colors of gold. Any combination is possible. The expression of color is infinite. The moment it receives the light, it emits a fantastic light. A ring that emits fresh green light or a ring that looks like the setting sun. There is only one piece of jewelry that has a meaningful color.

4. Aurora can be worn regardless of gender. A jewel-like metal gradient ring. At the moment of various scenes, its jewel-like color brings you happiness and receives the message of the ring. And the message is transmitted to the

surroundings. It also becomes a bond that never separates when two persons choose a color. As a proof of happiness, as a proof of oath. And it becomes a unique existence.

MITAMI jewels are made using slate (the stone of her region, Liguria), which is the basis of her work. She recovers it from industrial processing waste and gives it a new life. She transforms it into small sculptures to be worn with a contemporary, minimalist and geometric style. Her jewels are totally handmade, always different from each other because they are created with the scrap pieces available, never the same! Every difference makes them unique and exclusive.

Necklace with pendant in slate and brass from the METEORE collection that intends to explore the more material aspect of the stone, engraved and carved with a bas-relief motif where the play of shadows created by light gives threedimensionality and movement.

1. Inspired by shards of glass and dichotomies, this fragment choker presents two halves of one whole. The black gold side, embellished with deep blue stone accents, acts as a visual contrast to the bright gold side. The collier can be worn in several ways - either displaying both the dark, starry night and the golden sun, or just the night or just the day. It can also be worn reversed without the stones showing.

2. Also coming from a fascination with broken glass, this ring is alchemized into more rounded and bent shapes than its necklace counterpart. Similarly, it works within a world of contrasts: a mirror polished front and an inside surface are juxtaposed with rough, raw, and textured edges. On one side a detail of blood-red garnets has been fashioned within a bed of oxidized cuts. The ring can be worn on different parts of the finger and viewed from various angles, with or without stones.

1. This ring was inspired by natural brutal shapes, such that of high mountains, which is reflected in its form and surface. It is made of a stainless steel through blacksmith processes, such as forging hammering. The black color is achieved via a unique oxygenation process. During the creation the ring undergoes some extreme heating and burning, which is again, very close to natural process of volcanoes.

He is a blacksmith artisan from Russia. He applies his craftsmanship and skills to create unique contemporary jewelry pieces. Each piece is crafted individually from stainless steel, with application of blacksmith processes. Even if he can make similar pieces, they will not be identical. His main style is brutal contemporary and he is constantly exploring new forms and ideas. The main values of his brand are: raw and brutal style, contemporary design, individuality for each customers.

An Italian contemporary jewelry designer and maker Sibilla Santucci is based between Florence and Berlin. Native from Florence, Sibilla graduated from the Polimoda Fashion & Design Institute, later specializing in Contemporary Jewelry at Alchimia Jewelry School. She combines her traditional and classical background, influenced by the mythological universe in her works, which she revisits with a contemporary style.

2. This ring is inspired by the brutal nature of the Russian north and large icebergs of northern oceans. The raw unpolished fragment of white quarts retains its natural form; the ring itself is hand forged and its form is primitive, to resemble the forms created by nature, such those of trees. The ring is made in stainless steel, which is a very hard material; it is challenging to create a ring with a crystal through hand forging techniques, which makes it very unique.

Born in the South of Chile, where she embraced the shapes of nature as a prism to interpret life. She studied Industrial Design at University of BioBio in Concepción. In 2014 she started studying jewelry professionally at the Contemporary Jewelry School WE WALKA in Santiago (Chile). In 2015 she was invited to participate in CH.ACO - Chilean Contemporary Art Exhibition; in that year she also represented Chile at the Jewelry Art Biennale in Beijing, China.

1. How much volatile residue have you seen dancing in the wind, hanging from an invisible web, which is unveiled when the morning dew comes to refresh a new day? Moments, photographs taken by memory which materializes them in jewelry showing the fragility of time going by, and the footprint that the material and its history leave as poetry itself. This necklace is fabricated by hand, made from found wood, carved and intervened with fused silver in the shape of drops, and a Serene linked chain.

2. This piece is about what becomes visible when touched. Of weaved delicacy, minute threads join to configure a major structure, where we can see the strength of what is subtle. This pendant is composed of two forged .950 silver pieces, assembled by hot placed rivets conjoined. The chain is hand weaved Kumihimo cord, and its form is inspired by the way spiders capture and wrap their prey, covered by water dew, which is represented by the fused silver drops.

3. This piece is a symbol of significant commitment for its wearer. It is a symbol of the union with oneself or another, and the lingering of this relationship in time. The figure “Serene” is the representation of the poetry of the spider web, whose shape also functions as a way to

weave the fine silver thread into a firm structure. The technique is named Kumihimo, of Japanese tradition, and it is weaved completely by hand. It is designed as a headpiece, a necklace, and a bracelet.

4. Woods, humidity, petricor. Woods with moonlight and sunshine; dark woods with twinkling and sparkling water drops among the leaves, and silk between the corners that move with the wind and unveil with the glow of the dew. Deep corners, present moments, past longings, undone anguish and finally, peace, just peace. Found wood carved by hand to enhance its features, linked through a fine silver structure and joined by drop shaped rivets, it is a piece that will last for years and years.

PAOLA OSORNIO

1. Art is a way of looking through different people’s eyes. That is why she loves so much to use it as inspiration for her pieces. Monet had a way of interpreting life through light and color. He portrayed his beautiful flowers in several paintings as blurred brush strokes and achieved to transmit that sense of peacefulness. The curves of petals and leaves mix with each other to sculpt the silver body of this ring around the finger. Delicate but hard at the same time, just as Monet’s painting.

Founded in 2020 by Paola Osornio, DessinDossier is a personal project aimed at expressing a profound passion for art and how this translates into avant-garde jewelry design. Each piece and collection is the result of a creative process that explores concepts and the way they can be represented into forms. The pieces stand out because of their elegance and disruptiveness, meant for passionate people that want to express their true selves.

2. Monet said that what he always needed were flowers, always; so he created a beautiful garden filled with textures and colors that inspired him to keep on painting. The colors, the lights and shadows, the reflections on the water that he captured on every brushstroke inspired her to make this collection. Specifically focusing her attention on his Japanese gardens, she took the fluidity of the lilies on the water to make these pieces (earrings and ring).

VOMOVO´s pieces designed by DAVID MIRALLES, explore the relationship between shape and technology. With influences that can be as diverse as geometry, aerodynamic, symbology or sometimes ironic meanings. Essentially interested in creating works that call for the participation of the audience setting up a feedback. Apparently with unisex components they are aimed at men.

ANVIL FIRE AND TIME

RÉJANE PRATELLI

A jewelry artist based in Virginia, USA, Réjane Pratelli is fascinated by texture and uses it to explore the complex human psyche and the pressure society places on women: we are supposed to present a flawless appearance no matter how broken we might feel inside. Her intricate, brutalist pieces are both appealing and disturbing. This is jewelry that is meant to reflect who we really are rather than who we are expected to be, a true, empowering extension of the self.

1. In times of distress, it often feels easier to look for guidance in the obscure words of oracles and soothsayers rather than looking inside ourselves and find our own light. Heavily brushed and fused sterling silver shapes represent confusion and partially hide a vibrant golden citrine. Or partially reveal it. Just like you eventually choose how to interpret the words of the oracle, it’s always a matter of perspective.

2. Being alone is not a prerequisite to being lonely. Being trapped may be just a step away from being surrounded. Being physically close doesn’t always mean feeling close. We often feel lost in a crowd, surrounded by countless faces and mindless movements. But that might be the way for us to see ourselves as we really are, what makes us unique and beautiful. Loneliness ends when self-acceptance emerges. Being alone might be actual freedom.

3. Perfect life would be a perfect circle. From birth to death, a smooth, unbroken line. No hiccups. But no matter how much we plan and try to bring our lives under control, the smallest stick in the cogs has the potential to wreak havoc and leave us utterly lost. Or bring new perspectives, serendipity and self-discovery. Understanding that perfection is an illusion. As painful as it is, the life cycle needs chaos to keep going.

4. Wings have always represented freedom for us ground-bound humans. Who has never dreamed, even only once, to grow wings, spread them and escape away from it all? But it’s never so simple, is it? So many ties, so many parts of our

lives keep us bound to earth. The sky, represented by a small iolite, remains out of reach. Useless, the open silver wings wither away while remaining inexorably stuck to the shank of the ring.

3. Interruption

She was born in Tokyo in 1971. Working for an Italian jewelry import firm, she began to develop an interest in the creation method. Once a week she attended a goldsmith’s workshop, where she was taught the job. At the end of the 90s she went studying at the goldsmith academy in Florence. She now lives in Ticino, Switzerland, where she creates jewels inspired by the energy that people transmit but also by music, nature and the movie industries.

ATELIER ZAN

MAMI IWAHASE-DALESSI

1. The artist created this ring taking inspiration by a hen that hatches golden eggs. Its name is Carlos, a hen born and raised in Mami’s home. Just like any person who finds has tousled hair in the morning, Carlos has the same issue with one of his feathers. While this is funny, Calos shines in seven different colors when the light hits it. Mami used gold to express Carlos’ beauty.

SILVERDUST

2. This jewel is a way to Mami’ steps of the last 20 years between Japan and Switzerland. The cut out base can be divided into two parts: the lower one represents the geography of her native country, while the upper one shows the place where she lives today. The overlayed squares symbolize life, while each step represents conflicts and satisfactions. Moving step by step, the artists finds herself at the top, where a stone shines bright.

YENTHL VAN DE KAR

/NEDERLAND @silverdust_yenthl

Driven by pure craftsmanship and the art to be skilled, Yenthl started her training as goldsmith at TnA Antwerp. Her biggest passion was to give a new life to this profession. During her training, she participated with her school at the *Diamond High Council - Awards Antwerp, where she proudly won the second price. After her graduation she was able to share those dreams with the world and become a skilled goldsmith. From that moment on, she makes jewelry as an art. Her journey has begun.

1. Created without a purpose, Created without intention. This bracelet came to life. A free form existed from nothing, but with the goal to create a story. All jewelry have a story of their own, something this bracelet has not found yet. Will it be worn by a powerful woman with its strong, independent lines and massive form? Or will it protect those who need a bit of power in their life, with its sharp look and hidden beauty?

2. One by one, made by hand and old craftsmanship. Each form on its own, makes it complete. Only by wearing you will notice, the parts will melt together into a whole bracelet. Strong lines will form a base, a minimalistic look, for the owner to reveals its beauty. The undefined forms speak for their own since every piece is made individually, while still everything belong together. Created to wrap around the body, they will bring the definition together.

HEXAGONAL KALEIDOSCOPE

1. The effect of image vary depending on the angle at which the reflector of the characteristic honeycomb structure of the hexagonal shape is reflected. He still wants to live in a kaleidoscope. The moment his eyes stop whenever and wherever. With everything stationary, the concept of time and space disappears and it becomes his space, the world.

Inside the Kaleidoscope. ‘He sees his world as a hexagonal kaleidoscope. He portrays this view of the world through his work, which consists of infinite silver nets, one pattern overlapping the other, creating a new order where we find comfort, peace and clarity about our future.’ He heals and finds consolation in precious memories of his youth. In a rapidly changing world, our old memories fade and we grow tired. But we humans also find the strength to push our limits when we reflect on our memories. In such spirit of power and resilience, he has collected and distilled his memories into all his pieces.

Davide Golzio is 3D designer modeler from Turin. He created his own bijoux-jewelry brand called wayfordesign. He uses all the latest 3D printing technologies such as sls and multijetfusion to create his works in different materials (925 silver, flexible plastics). He likes to experiment and express his creativity. He is inspired above all by the most daring forms of architecture and design.

2. “Memory is like a kaleidoscope. The landscape is filled with beautiful small stones. His artwork is a form of healing and infusing with fond memories of his childhood. One important clue for understanding his artwork is remarking that “a reverie attracting various memories is like a kaleidoscope that shows different patterns when you shake it.”

1. Ring in the shape of a stylized scorpion created with 3D printing sls technology in 925 silver. Elegant and with an attractive design, it highlights above all the sting and the claws of the scorpion which, as they do not touch, create a ring that remains open. This animal has always fascinated the artist because of its dangerousness and original and unique structure and he wanted to make his own interpretation.

2. Ring created with 3D printing in flexible plastic (PA12) with multijetfusion technology. Very flexible and resistant, it fits very well on the finger and is very light to wear. It has the shape of a fighter plane and comes in two versions: the first in black with a suspended ball symbolizing the pilot, the second in gray with glitter decorating the stylized lines. Original and innovative design.

What do we appreciate in jewelry? Simplicity and clarity, brightness and personality, geometry and simplicity, clean lines, minimalism and comprehensible design, as well as the story behind each collection. What is our brand about?

It is about to become and stay a human being with strong personality. Our jewelry is a piece of art idea organically embedded into the metal made in low-volume amounts, guaranteeing you the emphasized exclusivity of jewelry.

1. DODECAHEDRON RING Clean lines and symmetry became the main points when choosing this object as a “model” of the collection. The main idea of the collection is to preserve the shape and the volume of the DODECAEDR object. It was achieved by keeping space for the earlobe in the earrings or for the fingers in the ring, while preserving geometry and volume as much as possible. To create complex forms the 3D printing technology was chosen.

2. DODECAHEDRON EARINGS To create complex forms the 3D printing technology was chosen, without using traditional technologies of jewelry production, such as soldering and casting. Nevertheless all the metal processing and finetuning is exclusively handmade. Additionally, it was decided to connect details of the earrings with a magnet, which also made it possible to preserve the shape of the geometric figure.

ROBERTA CONSALVO SANCES

Born in Milan in 1966, Roberta Consalvo Sances first worked in Human Resources. Since 2015 she has dedicated herself to contemporary jewelry. She got her BFA in 2017 and a Master in Contemporary Jewelry and Body Ornaments in 2019 at Alchimia Jewelry School in Florence. In 2020 she exhibited the pieces of her “Zero” collection at the MAD in Florence, at the Marzee International Graduate Show in Amsterdam and at the Athens Jewelry Week in Athens. She lives and works in Florence where she creates jewelry.

1. The idea of emptiness as a fundamental and precious space is what inspired the “ZERO” collection to which this brooch belongs. The concept of emptiness has fascinated humanity since the dawn of time and in “Zero” Roberta gives her personal representation. Her vision echoes the oriental conception of emptiness which places it at the beginning of all things. The pieces of this body of work are in fact a celebration of this invisible dimension without which nothing could exist.

2. By defining and structuring the space with an industrial steel filter, Roberta wanted to make the void “visible”, so that, through perception, it can become a presence, both a physical and mental space, the intimate and precious place in which our emotions can flow. In this brooch from the “ZERO” collection, she wanted to transform the preciousness of emptiness into a jewel in order to create an object in which, in the end, the emptiness itself is the real jewel.

JEWELLERY BY ANTHIA

ANTHIA BARBOUTSIS

An art jeweler from Toronto, Canada, Anthia Barboutsis has an interest in history and philosophy. Her work focuses on blending techniques from across craft disciplines, as well as ideas from across academic fields. Anthia’s specialty comes from the merging of textile techniques in metal, to create detailed pieces of jewelry. She often uses traditional weaving and braiding techniques in her work, as well as blending in a range of colors and natural materials into her pieces.

1. In The Round is a component style bracelet that is the central piece of a small production line of hand woven forms. The line, titled Building Blocks, explores hand weaving in 360° and 180° designs. The line features a range of pieces that are focused on showcasing the elegance of simplified forms. In The Round showcases a rounded cube unit that is the first ‘building block’ in the line. That unit is then further manipulated to create the other ‘building blocks’ and the whole line of work.

2. Harmony exhibits the balance we aim to maintain in our lives. In life, there are countless external and internal forces at work, pushing and pulling us at any given time. And so we take everything in stride and aim for balance to keep

The piece features two separate traditional kumihimo braids, with each one done in a different ratio and pattern. The piece also features hand woven caps, made specifically to size of the braid, that close off the ends and connect to the clasp.

Her name is Kayo Ozaki and her styles have two conflicting characteristics like “Strength” and “Fragility”. She designed all her jewels as a mute resistance against the people who hurts her or her dignity. Therefore, these have certain shapes that provoke them and defend herself. Her dream is being a hero for somebody who deeply wants to be strong but fragile, and giving them strength and confidence. She hopes her jewels make you a soldier to live unshakably.

turned into an exploration curved forms. The series, titled Growth, aims to answer the question of how the process of hand weaving changes and reacts to different curved forms.

6. Uncarved No. 2 is the second piece of a small series of pieces that are centered around a number of large uncut citrine chunks. Inspired by the rough uncut stone, the ring design explores a simply, yet gritty brutalist form, that tethers between an elegant and crude design. As each of the citrine stones are unique in shape, the jewelry is made to showcase the particular stone in its natural form, with no changes made to the shape of the stone.

1. She designed this jewelry as a statement for all the people who cannot establish their existence without putting someone down. She thinks the most important thing in life is raising the middle finger up to all these bullshits in your life. But in the real life, she knows that you cannot do that, so she created it for you to be brave by wearing this jewelry. She named it “NerveEarrings”. This shapes the form of a middle finger not obviously but absolutely.

2. This design is composed of motifs that are grey tone colors. She used gray to remind you of ashes. For her, ashes are the symbol of death, the dead body of the old yourself. If you encounter the tough situation that kills you or burns out and be ashes, it makes you rise from the ashes and be born again to be the best version of yourself. She always wishes you bounce back from adversity. You will be tougher, stronger than you were. She was inspired by the song of Eminem “Beautiful Pain” that she loves.

An ideal jewel for women who love to enrich their outfits with a touch of light and personality. Ph@maria.nicolini.ph

Laura Pedrazzi lives in Milan. After classical and art history studies, she managed important exhibitions as head of general coordination, an experience that prompted her to create her own brand. A yarn in her hands, stones and crystals, and the magic is done: her first bijou. Contamination between processing techniques found, in her latest collection, the highest expression.

A Portland, Oregon based artist, Joey Rose Cardoso has a practice which is rooted in wearable art. Her jewelry line, Just Joey Rose, and her full body-scale, sculptural work alike, are inspired by the biological aesthetic of anatomy reflected in nature, a theme which is woven throughout her work. The body of work that she has created ranges from, effortlessly bold, everyday pieces, to cumbersome headpieces, dubbed “wigs”, that interact with the wearer in non-functional and debilitating ways.

2. The beauty of craftsmanship is expressed in the delicacy of the details. Petals in silk and lurex fabric worked and sewn one by one on a ropecolored cotton tube, hand-embroidered with gold glass beads. This necklace tells about elegant and feminine women.

RICHARD HIGHAM ARTIST

RICHARD HIGHAM

1. This Silver ring is inspired by leaf forms. The band is rolled and hammered sheet silver split strip, that is shaped to form the organic leaf form. The strong organic form of this ring with its flared leaf like tension type setting provides the perfect focal point for the gem setting. Richard attempts with this ring to bring to life some of the many dynamic beautiful forms, shapes, irregularities of nature.

A former architect, Richard Higham is from Auckland, New Zealand. For the last twenty years New Zealand’s bush, native flora and landscape environments have been the favorite themes of his Acrylic on canvas paintings. More recently Richard has started to further explore these themes through jewelry making. He has chosen two rings that are good examples of how he has transitioned his favorite acrylic on canvas subject matter to the three-dimensional medium of jewelry.

Born in Moscow on May 27, 1977, Inga Macaron studied at the Law Academy, and then at the Eastern University. Since 2014 she has written articles for the Russian magazine Jewelry Garden.

LES MASCARONES was founded in 2014. “Her jewelry is her view as an artist on this world, on its past, present and future. This is her personal manifesto, her desire to preserve the beauty of her native city and its reliefs in eternity.” The project “Les Mascarones” is dedicated to the ancient mascarons decorating historical buildings.

2. This copper ring is inspired by flower and flower bud forms. The band is a copper strip and the main focal point of the ring is a copper-formed flower bud form. Richard uses the strong but simple organic bud form as the concept of this ring. The copper material and color help give warmth and strength to this piece. The rawness of the material and finish help to convey the strength but also the venerability of a newly formed flower bud.

LES MASCARONES

1. Mascaron is an Old Man, possibly Poseidon Triton or Glaucus from the Embassy collection. The house was built in 1880 by Architect P.I. Gaudring. Like many historical buildings in Moscow, it is decorated with mascarons dedicated to Greek and Roman mythology. The building of the Embassy of Kazakhstan in Moscow is decorated with a monument of architecture made of porcelain using experimental technology. The details are decorated with gilding.

2. Mascaron Satyr. From the Museum collection. This face adorns the house built in 1904 by the architect I.G. Kondratenko. A brooch depicting a grotesque mask of a laughing man tells us about the traditions of the Greek theater. At the moment, this house is the museum of the Russian artist A. Vasnetsova. The decoration introduces us to the protection of historical heritage. The brooch is made in an experimental technique of porcelain with gilding.

RENATE ERLACHER

/AUSTRIA renate-erlacher.com @renateerlacher

He was born in Munich in 1963 and grew up in an artistic family. As he was not so good at school, he learned the metal trade, with an insight into a family of sculptors. He learned the basic requirements of forging and casting, and through this internship he was admitted to a silversmith apprenticeship. In 1989 he got a place in the Munich art academy. To this day he has been working independently in his own workshop and the development never stops because there is always something new to discover. He has been working with emaille technology for many years.

1. The brooch developed by Renate Erlacher consists of nine three dimensional squares seeming to be randomly put together, without being connected, because she did not want to solder them together. She constructed a frame in the back of the brooch, made of silver as well, with many little feet that got inserted into the three-dimensional squares, filled with red colored resin. This frame also acts as a closure. This way the construction is stable while still keeping its lightness.

The Austrian Renate Erlacher graduated in German language, literature and philosophy and later got her PhD in Psychology. She worked as a lecturer for GSL in Vienna and as a guest Professor at Koryo University in South Korea. From the late 90s on she designed handbags, one of which was acquired by the German Leather Museum. In 2015 she went to Florence to study contemporary jewelry at Alchimia. Her works are shown internationally and in 2019 she won a design award at the Venice Design Week.

2. Renate Erlacher loves to experiment with different materials, techniques, and shapes. And as she also loves to paint, she wanted to try out painting on metal with enamel as well. The ring she developed consists of a silver frame, oxidized, with a face painted with enamel and pigments on a copper plate. Even though the ring is rather big, through the delicate construction and the pastel colors it feels light and it is pleasant to wear.

FLORIAN BUDDEBERG

1. He plays with different shapes until he is satisfied with the result, then he chooses the colors for the emaille process. He likes to orient himself to traditional ideas that he associates with painting. He tries to create a harmony between inside and outside. Sensitive craftsmanship is a kind of basis. Of course, first and foremost, the ring is a pleasure to wear without paying any attention to it now.

2. Actually he means about the same as with his other ring, in addition he is combining something that is reminiscent of old rituals and customs. Which he wants to hold on to in the form. Something that comes from another time when people still saw an unconventional sense in jewelry and made connections to a hidden world in which it was not just a matter of showing off. Maybe occult content that used to make more sense than it does today.

Sue completed a BA (Hons) in 2019 and an MA in 2021, both specializing in metal and jewellery making. Her current work is centred around exploration of the natural environment that surrounds her in the Snowdonia National Park. Techniques including lost wax casting, traditional fabrication techniques and resin casting are used to interpret the interface between natural environments and manmade structures in local slate quarries. These processes allow Sue to investigate landscapes that are intimately familiar and constantly rediscovered and reimagined.

1. A structure of patinated brass wire is used to hold an organic bio resin form, subtle tones and gradation of pigment have been used to mimic the movement and depth found in natural bodies of water which the maker finds mesmerizing, stimulating interaction with the piece in much the same way as water can be gazed upon and new things discovered within is the impetus behind the making of the ring, to catch a fleeting glimpse or a moment in time to be immortalized.

2. Enclosing bioforms within fabricated structures, the piece is formed by the interface between natural forms and manmade structures. The resin pieces are reminiscent of natural rock formations found within local landscapes. Mica and Rock Crystal pieces are held suspended within the forms, creating areas of light and schiller that respond differently in different light and environments imitating the ephemeral light to be found in nature. The piece is balanced between scale, weight and form.

A Brazilian jewelry designer and artist, Karen is based in NYC. Growing up all over South and Central America as well as the Caribbean, her methods of expression developed in multiple languages and perspectives from an early age. As an adult, this has also proliferated into the many inspirations, mediums, and materials used across her work. Through the pieces in this collection, Karen strives to create awareness of our society’s inherited throw-away culture by using found and recycled materials.

1. Every piece of plastic we’ve ever used is still in existence, long after it’s been thrown away. By using materials often found in garbage bins or littered in streets, Karen is able to give new purpose to discarded objects. One of the main components in this brooch is a used plastic straw from a Dunkin’ Donuts in NYC. In some cities across the world, plastic is already outlawed. What if this was the case everywhere? How would this newly rare material be perceived?

2. Karen’s found object pieces challenge us to question our relationship with our trash. Could we see our trash as something to be transformed and nurtured, even valuable? This ring preserves broken car glass found on the street in Queens, New York. Originally destined to be swept up by street cleaners or dragged down a drain, it is now immortalized as jewelry to be appreciated and adored for many years to come – in what she hopes will be a waste-less world.

JOELLE BENVENUTO

1. Linea 5 necklace is the best representative of the entire collection. Its geometric appearance, provided by a rectangular shape, creates a sense of structure and order. The contrasting colors bring a sort of asymmetrical balance that makes the visual effect surprising. The mix of nylon fiber and silver fixtures creates versatility and an industrial look, which has never been seen before. The dualcolor U Earrings enforce the asymmetry further.

In 2019, Joelle Benvenuto, a Belgian-Italian designer launched her brand Futurisnow inspired by her love for modern, minimalist fashion. The Linea Collection which consists of necklaces, earrings, bracelets, rings and broches, can be personalized by using a variety of available colors to match a particular outfit. Each piece is very light and comfortable to wear while complementing any formal and casual outfits.

A Vietnamese art jewelry designer. She studied MA in Jewelry in Birmingham, UK. She is passionate about the consequences of plastic pollution. Her work uses a mixture of recycled plastic, bioplastic and PPE to make bold, powerful pieces that aim to shock viewers with images of fossilized remains caused by human consumer indulgence. She believes we can use recycled plastic to make interesting and thought-provoking pieces that help make people think about their use of plastic.

2. Linea 24 necklace’s shape is inspired by African motifs, Mid-Century furniture and 80’s music. Joelle works mainly with simple raw materials. She constantly experiments with both materials and creative ideas to visualize her vision. She creates colorful statement pieces which also have changeable color elements that allow the clients to alter their pieces after they purchase them. These interchangeable pieces foster a closer relationship between her fashion accessories and their owners.

1. This piece shows the impact not only of PPE but also of the problem of how plastic gradually breaks down into extremely small micro pieces that are then found inside the animal. The appearance of the piece looks like a bulletproof vest or a life vest and is thus a metaphor showing how people use face masks to protect human life, this having however a reverse effect in the seas, as it actually takes the lives of marine animals.

2. This necklace is a bold and elaborate piece that is made up of 5 separate pieces equating to the 5 great oceans of the world. Each connected but also separated. It is made to show that not only there is a growing problem of plastic pollution impacting the world’s seas but there is now the very real problem of PPE especially face masks having a catastrophic effect on the actual future and existence of marine life.

3. This piece is about the endangerment and extinction of animals due to excessive plastic pollution. This is highlighted by the strong slogans used. Humans are acting in a reckless way due to consumer behavior. Another important aspect of the piece is that the box shape represents a shield that in addition to protecting us also imprison us in cells in which we encase ourselves. It is thus a manmade cage enveloping humanity.

4. This somewhat complex piece continues the theme that humans are all criminals, who are not only endangering but also causing the death of precious marine life. However, this piece is a combination of a necklace and handcuffs. They are interconnected and joined together. The skeletal remains that are hanging from the masks represent the death and destruction that discarded plastic or polyester based PPE has on marine animals.

5. This necklace represents a human hand that is inadvertently and slowly killing the seahorse it has captured. Overuse of protective equipment such as surgical gloves to protect people is actually affecting animal life in a very negative way. The necklace is worn in such a way around the neck that it somehow shows that we are killing ourselves also because of our reckless and excessive consumer behavior.

6. This elaborate piece represents handcuffs. The pieces are interconnected and locked together. The clear premise behind the piece is that humans are all literally criminals who are responsible for the death of marine life; although they should be

punished, they are actually punishing themselves by killing a vital part of the food chain. It also shows that the marine animals have got stuck inside and have died inside the plastic packaging with a lot of plastic debris scattered around their dead bodies.

1. Inspired by stories of dragons, Malefer is a small Wyvern. Traditionally as a wyvern he was expected to want to grow & curl around great hills, treating himself to livestock nearby. Malefer however is content to be small & hide among the flowers, hearing songs & tales of passersby. Let this dragon curl around your finger & join your travels. Seeing the world by your side, reminding you of the beauty around you, even if it’s just a small flower that’s perfect for a dragon to rest their head in.

2. Coventina was a goddess in charge of the rivers, wells and springs. This pendant, a small shell that travelled in her waters, is a token to remember the power of a river. Calm above, there can be strong currents hidden beneath. Water is life eternal and this little pendant is a reminder that no matter what, you can carry on, forging your own path and grow. Coventina is inspired by the Romano-British goddess, a shrine to her can be found near Hadrian’s Wall.

She is German and started as a jewelry designer in 1988. Her work is shown in galleries and different trade fairs. Since 2009 her own gallery has been on a charming street. Thoughts become bodies. She only makes rough sketches – most of it happens while doing. She mainly works from the surface to a three-dimensional form, but sometimes she also models with wax. She creates small sculptures that can also stand for themselves, but for her it is important that her objects get into communication with the wearer.

1. The ring SPUTNIK is a sculptural solitaire ring for the middle finger. A beautiful large purple amethyst is held in place by four polished prongs. It is worn in such a way that the set gemstone lies on the neighboring finger. So it nestles wonderfully in your hand. There is a contrast between the polished surface beneath the amethyst and the brushed outer surface. This distinctive ring will become a part of you...

2. She loves this SPUTNIK series. Each piece is hand-modeled by her and is then cast. The creation process is always fascinating. She had big bright dots of color in mind ... but the shape should be equally interesting. The ring was not supposed to be worn in the ordinary way ... and what came out was SPUTNIK. Here with a bright yellow lemon citrine. A ring that makes you happy and feels great. A distinctive modern design that supports your personality.

A transparent gemstone, here a wonderful petrolcolored tourmaline, is protected and held by the shape. She also makes the SNAIL ring in gold and other great transparent colored gemstones. What preciousness is inside you?

4. The ring SNAIL, one of her favorite pieces, is a small sculpture for the hand. It impresses with its clarity and its pure design. Its spiral shape creates an open stone setting that gives the turquoise tourmaline all the light it needs to shine. Here she has the opportunity to process highly cut gemstones. It is made of matt silver with polished accents. SNAIL is for those who prefer modern and minimalist jewelry. It is a ring to be worn and loved.

3. Jewelry is a bridge between your inner space and the outside world. She would like to express this with the SNAIL ring series. A threedimensional small sculpture emerges from a surface - in this piece made of forged silver-sheet. The ring has a clear geometrical design language.
