Assemblage made of discarded and broken jewelry: glass repoussé shell, metal shell, vintage purple beads, rhinestones. Set on of 14k gold filled shepherd’s hooks (hypoallergenic).
Renaissance pieces are (re)designed and hand made in Canada, and are made from discarded and pre-loved jewelry. Due to the vintage and secondhand nature of the parts used, most pieces are made from alloyed metals and may show signs of wear. All parts and pieces used in the creation of jewelry are carefully selected by the maker despite minor imperfections. Asymmetrical designs and differentiation in pieces and colours are intentional. Each design is unique and one of a kind.
