Abel, LORICA  macramè armor

 

 

 

Made of soft cotton, with the macramé technique, with the addition of superficially machined brass tubes. The necklace is part of the Ancient Future collection, authentic light and tactile sculptures-armors to be worn, where the ancient meets the contemporary for a timeless collection inspired by the modern woman warrior.

 

 

 

 

 

This collection is based on the ancestors, who leave their brand, with materials of land, in symbols and dreams, offerings to honor the gods, protective objects for one and adornments for others. Materials that are transmuted from their origin to transform or to embellish the man.

 

 

Anastasia Khazyrbekava, Desire

 

 

 

The necklace is inspired by the nature of Israel, with its brightly blossom trees and flowers. Despite the arid climate and drought during half of year this country is indeed full of colours. The necklace symbolizes the strength and a thirst for life overcoming all difficulties.

 

 

Andrea Rosales-Balcarcel, 55th and 5th Necklace 

 

 

 

Sterling silver hand fabricated necklace with framed hand painted layers of watercolor and resin that recreate a painting originally done by the artist.  The necklace was inspired by a watercolor sketch of the scene on 55th street and 5th Avenue in New York City and comes with a print of the original painting.  

 

 

 

Anita Sondore, Epinoia, collection “I came to be”

 

“I dwell in those who came to be” in Egypt ancient manuscripts says Epinoia represents the creative Spirit, which prompted Eve to pluck the forbidden fruit. These are the words that aroused a deep interest in the spirit of divine creativity, its origins and values, as well as the story as a whole in the art of jewellery.

 

 

Annie Gobel, Pink And Blue Ice Cream 

 

 

 

‘Pink And Blue Ice Cream’ bangle is a piece of Annie’s experiments with complex, geometric bangle forms that she obtained from collaging block toys. Made with mild steel and enamel. The application of pink and blue is to reminisce Annie’s favourite colours when she was a young girl. 

 

 

Art7, Officium 

 

 

 

 

Necklace made of black amber designed to imitate ancient fabric. The item was inspired by a French medieval heraldic motive of fleur de lil. The natural outer shell of black amber gives impression of dark velvet “embroidered” with a golden pattern of stylized lilies on its both sides. 

 

 

Bia Tambelli Creations, Lotus Ring – Portal Collection

 

 

 

 

The Portal Collection is a symbol of deep inner knowledge and especially the Lotus ring, thanks to the stones, their geometric lines and the colour palette tells a story of personal introspection. The concept of spiritual growth is then perfectly embodied by the Lotus flower, the symbol of the apex of the spiritual connection.

 

 

Dalaleo, ELIZABETH

 

 

 

 

600 recycled tabs give life to this necklace, which is reminiscent of the Elizabethan ruffs. A necklace with a strong visual impact that has been created with maniacal perfection. The eye is lost in the game that is created, as in a labyrinth from where, however, it will never find a way out.

 

 

 

 

 

This is the second neckpiece from a collection of 3 pieces. The Collection was inspired by water pollution, plastic waste, and the adverse effects that are caused to bird and marine life. It is made from small wooden components built up to resemble abstract looking skeletal structures.

 

 

 

 

 

The concept that inspired the artist to create this  creative ring is the transfer of the neo-futuristic architectural project of Vincent  Callebaut - Paris Smart City 2050. “Bamboo nest tower” is shown in the intricated ring as the idea of using a vent funnel as a ring burr.

 

 

 

Ekaterina Peresvetova Peresvetti, Beetle pupa

 

 

 

 

Bright and extravagant this ring is made of jewelry resin, molded by the author's form. Mustaches are assembled from gilded Japanese seed beads, hematite and brass with inserts made of natural pearls. The base of the artwork is made of steel, the size of the ring is adjustable.

 

 

Federico Primiceri, LEVEL256 DOUBLE-RING

 

 

 

 

The bi-ring belongs to LEVEL 256 collection and stems from the imagination and ambition to give shape and substance, in terms of luxury, to the protagonist of PAC-MAN. Level 256 is the level that no one has ever been able to view. The artist materializes the level by shaping white and yellow gold and precious stones.

 

 

 

 

Made in lost wax and direct technique modeling, it pursues the charm of a precarious equilibrium, of the extension, and of the dynamic stress of surfaces and volumes, looking for a sort of perceptive alteration in contrast with the rigidity of the metal for a plastic fluidity of the composition.

 

 

 

Izabela Chan, Modern Savage -- Necklace

 

 

This unisex neckpiece is part of a contemporary jewellery collection attributed to primitive human instincts. Roughly processed natural materials: Gabon ebony, and sterling silver accented with black tourmalines, through a subjective designer approach results in a series of works with an appeal to the modern caveman.

 

 

Malin Jansson, ARCH bracelet

 

 

 

 

This bracelet is part of a series of bold jewelry in brass and silver. She has always been inspired by archways and architecture from the Middle East even before she started to work with jewelry. The jewelry is shaped while she is at the working bench in her studio. All pieces of jewelry are unique.

 

 

Maison Tjoeng, Palm Springs

 

 

 

 

 

This silver and white gold necklace is inspired by Palm leaf. Its bold design is both feminine and masculine. Open fronted and flanked by asymmetrical palm leaves, Palm Springs is molded to and drapes around the neck, with a hinge at the back of the neck to open and close.

 

 

 

May Avital, The heart pendant

 

 

 

 

Contemporary jewelry with geometric design. The classic shape of the heart is reinforced by the robotic and technological world giving the jewel a different character and intriguing presence. It has been created with a special technique producing unique movement surfaces made of metal and fabric.

 

 

Maya Ferroni, Tetraego 6.7cm x 5.5cm

 

 

 

 

The piece is made by using wax curving, casting, drawing and joint with experiment in hot soldering techniques. Geometry is fused with art in the tetraego ring, that represents the difficulties that face the human thought when is under the pressure of his own ambition. It can also be worn as pendant.

 

 

Meisam Ahmadi, Along with Michelangelo and Shaikh-il-ishraq in 2017

 

 

 

 

This Necklace is made in one edition with wax and casted with bronze. This artwork is a combination of the four elements. The base texture is wax and symbolizes soil. The wax is then heated by fire and after being exposed to strong wind it is poured in cold water, which indicates the creation of the earth.

 

 

 

MIMIKRA Kinga Sulej, Dragon Flower

 

 

 

This ring was made of thin silver sheet and colored black to remind of a predatory plant species. It won the first/second/third award at the Polish AFC Design 2016. The ring is unique, will not be replicated, and is extraordinarily delicate, an art object rather than a regular piece of jewelry suitable for daily use.

 

 

My Golden Cage by Maria Elena Pino, Seal Pendant 

 

 

 

This double necklace with pendant can be worn in three ways. It is finely made through the processing of simple and complementary geometric shapes, tubular and square elements, in gold-plated brass, which are completed by high-end leather tassels.

The momentum of three important hand-engraved silver triangles, which support the light of a large stone, illuminated by white sapphires.

Sonya Zograbyan for So Zo, DeVice. A bracelet.

 

 

 

The bracelet metaphorically represents the clutches of the contemporary world that capture an individual in the society. The civilization is shown as being attractive and horrifying at the same time.The piece is made by hand using traditional jeweler’s techniques and industrial brass parts.

 

 

Stacey Huang, ‘Gift set’ necklace

 

 

This collection presents the idea of bundling sale in supermarkets. As other pieces in this collection, the ‘Gift set’ necklace contrasts the precious with the everyday. This supermarket collection gets the inspiration from the international language of packaging and sales promotions.
