Inspiration! YSL and the love of agates…

Over the top statement pieces of jewelry are very current. Large chains, large stones and interesting details give these pieces their unique edge. I have been inspired by YSL and their use of raw agates, yet my initial inspirations go to the Mediterranean sea and the islands of Monaco and Capri. The feeling that you get from being in a pure raw state with nature and absorbing the ocean, sea and island breeze. I have also been inspired by Grace Kelly and her role in High Society, her graceful approach to life and her ease in having it all and of course her Cartier 10 carat Emerald cut diamond and its absolute rare beauty. The Cartier Exhibit also gave me tremendous amounts of inspiration. Cartier is my favorite jewelry house and I have always been intrigued with their use of fine stones and the barely visible metal that holds them all together. The pieces below are limited edition pieces and are made with many raw agates, the layered effect and draping of metal chains give these pieces a one of a kind, completely fresh look.
