The art of adorning the body has existed forever and has been used by many cultures and for a variety of reasons. Out of all the creatures in the animal kingdom, only humans seek to adorn themselves. Jewelry takes this role in a variety of forms; there is the need for ornamentation, the use of jewelry as amulets and even signs of love, oh, and lets not forget the healing powers of semiprecious stones. Jewelers’ art has been practiced in almost every condition in which civilizations have existed. I am far from being a jeweler but truly enjoy creating unique and meaningful body adornments.
