Here is an intimate look at one of my last custom wirewrapped pendants.

As of 2016 I decided to stop making high end jewelry full time to pursue other interests I have, thus taking on less and less custom jewelry. This piece is one of my last. It features a stone selection provided by the client, something that I have never done before. I took a very different approach with this piece. I was posed with the challenge of working with specific stones, so I decided to go completely outside of the box, and I couldn't be happier with the result.

I was really inspired by the hard geometry of crystals and the natural curves of filigree.

Micro-crystalline growth can be seen in the luster of the Tsavorite Garnet (green gemstone) as reflections of light.
