Breathtaking and intriguing, the cloisonné jewelry by Julie
Glassman is in a category by itself. Each custom handmade jewelry
piece is made using the time-honored technique of cloisonné enamel.
This labor intensive process consists of layers of glass which are fired on
a metal surface. Hot and painstaking work goes into each one. She combines the
cloisonné enamel with sterling silver, 22 karat gold and semi-precious
stones with the final result being a Unique
Stone & Gemstone Pin which can also be worn as a pendant.
Barbara
Otterson loves the "unyielding character of metal. It seeks
to hold its own and challenges her to shape it to her will. Bringing her visions
to life in sterling silver, gold, glass, gemstones and found objects" she
has found many of her visions come to life in the form of Silver
Pins & Brooches. Delicate, sensitive and full of grace, her handmade
pins are sure to please everyone from the young girl to the cultured
woman!
One of the newest artists on our site is Rebecca
Ottensmann. What a treat her handcrafted pins are! She has a unique creative
spark which goes into each and every one of her one-of-a-kind handmade
pins. Combining such found elements as bone, shell and rock and working
with polyshrinking film (think Shrinky dinks all grown up),
these works of art are amazing and exciting!
Trendy jewelry, fashion jewelry, unique fine art jewelry as well as the wild
and wonderful handcrafted artisan jewelry is all here!
