Description
Tiger’s eye Cameo Earrings stand out for their unique cameos engraved in tiger’s eye minerals. They show a raised relief image of a man, a warrior with a roman helmet. Natural form complement polished surface. Tiger’s eye was used for many years in jewellery, especially in carved rings, beads, bracelets, pendants but also bigger sculptures. I search inspiration in common things, objects, peoples and situations. The strength of the feelings makes my work deeper and richer. I use gems for the expression of soul. Some works are considered as objects that are suitable for wear. For me, to create jewellery, is to make the inner world visible. Colours and forms of biological organisms transformed in the mind and through the hands. Amidst the chaos, there is harmony. Millions of fascinating species depend on each other. Some of them fall into oblivion. I want to protect and cherish the natural world. Nature itself defies expectations and comprehensibility. How far is it from the depths of the unknown oceans until you reach the depth of imagination, an unknown place where everything is possible? And in countless combinations? We move slowly, swim at the bottom of our thoughts and discover again and again what we have not even dreamed of. . . You ask yourself where this fantastic variety of impossible forms and mystical colors comes from? What inspires nature in her creations?
Tiger’s eye Cameo Earrings are made of silver. A unique creation. It is made for the Terra Incognita collection. Twisted and organic shapes are inspired by marine life forms like medusae and anemones. The opulence of color combinations, paired with materials like titanium and wood result in fantasy creations which approach real sea animals in different ways. Contrast and contradiction becomes sharper by using divergent materials side by side. For me it is important to feel the material, its smooth or rough surface, its natural softness or its temperature.
Tiger’s eye Cameo Earrings is a special light piece for everyday wearing.
