Modern Artifacts is handmade jewelry blending ancient textures with contemporary design. Using 14k gold, sterling silver, nu-gold, brass, bronze, shibuichi, and copper, patinas are applied with various processes and then strategically sanded and polished or gilded with 23K gold leaf. Minimalism and modern architecture inform the design aesthetic, yet this is juxtaposed by the preciousness of patinas and often a dusting of gold across hammered textures. Inspired by the weathered beauty of ancient archeological artifacts the handmade bracelets, necklaces, and earrings are bold yet sophisticated accessories to be worn alone or layered for a chic statement.
