Topaz

The Contrast No.3, Ring, Material: Sterling Silver, Concrete, Aquamarine, Peridot,
Citrine, Tourmaline

Concrete shaped like a faceted gemstone is juxtaposed with real colorful gemstones to
create a unique contrast that questions the value of material in jewelry. What is
precious? What makes value in jewelry? Is it about the art or the intrinsic value of
material?
