“This elegant construction exemplifies
everything that makes jewelry special. The materials chosen,
high karat gold and garnet, are rich with the warm tones, deep
shine, and understood rarity that makes any object desirable. The
composition contains numerous circular references through the
overall disk, the cone shaped stones, and the groupings of spheres
around the perimeter. Achieving all this in a compact
object, and then making that object a functioning accessory for
adornment is at the center of the jeweler’s art. In
the end, or perhaps it is the first thing, this jewelry is wonderful
to behold.”
