Ring for Gesticulating Hands

9/29/2021

I sat at the bench for a few hours this week and made a ring.
Nothing fancy, just experiments in simple designs to add to my twisted and wires collection, but I did lose myself in all the possibilities, making rings has always been one of my favorite pieces to make.

And then lost myself even further when I got a picture of this ring below, and and couldn't resist a little dip into memory lane...

Ring for Gesticulating hands by Emanuela Aureli (1998)

This ring is long gone. A dear collector from Arizona took it home with her years ago...

As far as the new experiments in simple ring-making, stay tuned!

Simple and always colorful, the bangles are here to stay!

As I was talking to someone the other day, the phrase 'the future is uncertain, and the end is always near' - Jim Morrison's words, came to mind.
But it always, and in almost any circumstance, brings back the attention to what in life that stays, what goes.

Nothing deep in an everyday object like a simple bangle, and yet...it could be another one of those keepers.

To Keep!

a little feature

12/8/2020

one of the many good things that have come to life during and despite this troubled year, is a local artists collective that sprang into action in response to the covid19 pandemic, offering a supportive net for fellow artists and makers.
had been following them on instagram @artico.20 since the start but did not readily envisioned being one day featured on their feed!

so I'll be up there for the full week of december 6 through 12, go check it out and enjoy the ride, each day is a new post and a new image...

Stick Pendants now

11/18/2020

Single or in colorful combinations, the time for the Stick Pendants is now.

As with all of my work and in trying to keep things as simple a possible - especially in these difficult times, cannot not point out these simple pendants this week.

Each pendant comes on either a 36 inch or a 42 inch black cotton cord, play with the two sliders on the cord to adjust into various lengths and styles for personal preferences.

They also have a nice feel to them, a good comforting weight anchoring down the task at hand of the daily. Adjust the feel to your personal liking.
They are intriguing just one-on-one. Even more so in twos...

stocked up on hoops too!

After a long long hiatus, one of these gaps in time that never seem to reconcile, this week I have been rejoicing in stocking up on some vermeil again, like the best-seller classic Hoops below.

For the super minimal, the black and white option, super classic in style, perfect match for simplicity.

And copper, and brass, colors of autumn or for an end of season.

There you go... got Hoops?

stocking up on coil rings

cold is here.
as a matter of fact there is a foot of snow blanketing my jeep outside. everything is blinding white.
it's time to stock up on a few basic things, firewood, thick rolled oats, beans of course.

then there are the other basics, simple daily pleasures to walk along with you in the day.
and to keep the fire going...

so, stocking up on things like these coil rings, in the golden vermeil, finger rings, scarf sliders...

or in simple black and brushed silver, quite minimal to fit right under those warm winter gloves!
