See here, a jewelry designer that I've met... Esmeralda Designs and her etsy shop...
She describes her artwork as "raw ethereal avant garde Eco metal works" - and yes, that is how I'd describe it. Looking at her rings, I was reminded of some of the things I would see in my summer of archeology in Israel. These rings are magnificent... They have words and meanings, ancient qualities and something new and fresh... Though modern is not the word. Ancient. Lovely.
I feel as if I put one of these rings on that it would make me feel transcendent to time. One can dream...
(oh, and her materials are recycled...)
Wow.
