Read the full description
This designer is known for exploring organic themes through innovative uses of conventional materials. The way that light and natural patterns are creatively incorporated into the designs continue to push the limits of what is possible in fine jewelry design, and it’s a big part of what makes these pieces so beautiful.
Carved Pearl
This piece is dominated by a 10mm freshwater pearl that’s carved to resemble a lotus flower, with the outer petals curling away from the main portion of the pearl slightly while the inner petals hug its surface more closely. The intricate texture this creates causes light to reflect in all different directions, which in turn helps to highlight the delicate beauty of the pearl itself. Pendants
The pendant body connects to the chain directly, with a hole that passes right through the top portion of the pearl. This eliminates the need for a separate bale, allowing the focus to stay definitively on the pendant itself. It also works to enhance the organic themes of the piece, and it ensures that the pendant will hang properly at all times when worn.

- We help you choose stones for your custom design, reviewing cut, color, clarity, consistency and fit. Your budget guides these choices; our standards for materials and craftsmanship remain the same.
