The post Ritual Remains Jewelry is Replicating Nature in Metal Form appeared first on 5dwallpaper.com.
]]>Helen and Tavo formed Ritual Remains in 2016, while they both resided in Oakland, California. Life took them in different directions in the years to come, and Helen is now based in Sonoma County, but that didn’t stop them from continuing their partnership and growing their small business.
Helen and Tavo were initially brought together by their mutual love for the outdoors. They’re both self-taught and prolific creatives, and Ritual Remains was born out of their “shared love of metal jewelry making and a shared vision to create wearable art that mirrors the natural world”, according to the duo’s official website.
Their metal jewelry is 100% handmade and they went through a long process of trial and error before mastering their craft. They’re on a mission to replicate nature into metal form, but they’re no strangers to experimenting with silver and gold.
They make everything from earrings and rings to necklaces and hair pins, and they’re best known for their lone pine pendants and earrings.

]]>Fukuda was born in São Paulo, Brazil and life took her to many different places before she found her true calling. She’s currently based in Leipzig, Germany, but she actually discovered her love for paper art during her time in Portugal.
“In Lisbon, she found in jewelry the perfect path to combine her passion for manual work with the subtlety of Oriental aesthetics present in all her pieces. Paper revealed itself as the main material and the artist explores in a unique direction its lightness and volume through different techniques,” reads Fukuda’s Etsy page.
Before turning to making paper art jewelry and filming her own course for Domestica, Fukuda graduated in public relations and spent ten years working in cinema and television.
She wanted her jewelry to break away from the common practice of using metal, and showcase paper as a truly precious material. Her creations are delicate and eco-friendly, and they’ll win you over with a delicate splash of colors.

]]>Tsurutaka uses traditional Japanese blacksmithing techniques to make her one-of-a-kind jewelry, and it all started when she was just 19. She was still a college student at the time, but jewelry-making allowed her to explore her creative side and celebrate her heritage.
She eventually started her own brand Black Barc Jewelry, and their official website states they’re dedicated to making everything by hand using old-time techniques, guided by the belief that making each piece by hand makes them special and unique.
Since embarking on this journey, Tsurutaka crafted many jewelry collections, exploring different subjects. Nature has always been her main driving force, so we’ve seen her create jewelry shaped like snakes, flowers, and skulls before settling on insects.
Tsurutaka’s has been thinking about making insect-shaped jewelry for years before finally launching her “Mushi” collection. Most of the pieces are shaped like her favorite insect—beetles—with wings that can open and close together, revealing colorful gems underneath.

]]>Lariushkina is the mastermind behind the brand Liska Flowers and she specializes in working with air-dry clay. She’s one of the countless artists who make jewelry using this material, so she knew she’ll have to develop a unique visual style in order to stand out.
Lariushkina now mostly works with Japanese polymer clay and she initially used it to create flowers. As time went by and she honed her skills, she came up with her own unique styles, using her hands to curl each pattern and later ensemble them into amazing jewelry.
Many pieces of polymer clay are required to form one of her works of art, and they’re usually inspired by nature. We’ve often seen her jewelry take shape of the most adorable animals, from birds and butterflies to foxes and hedgehogs.
Lariushkina’s creations often take a larger scale these days, as she moved on your jewelry to polymer clay panels depicting landscapes, seascapes, and underwater sceneries in a similar, swirling style.

]]>Prayer beads have been used in religions such as Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, and Hinduism, as a form of prayer and in their nonreligious form, they’re also referred to as worry beads to relieve stress.
Boyajian makes about 30 beads each hour every few days and her assistant Dee makes the clay and brings it to her studio where Dee puts it into the kiln and Boyajian finishes the project by glazing them.
“Making each bead one by one is a very meditative and repetitive process,” Boyajian told Vogue. “My goal is to assemble and utilize my beads in the same ways that these religious faiths do,” she continued.
So far, she has a lot of beads and she plans on making them into jewelry and selling them online and in her store.
“I always try to create things that have a purpose for me and the customer,” Boyajian says. “The pandemic has been a series of ups and downs for me, but creatively speaking, it has been wonderful.”
She plans on continuing to design the beads even after the world regains a sense of normalcy. “These beads are a great indication of time,” she says. “They’re like a personal calendar for marking the days while waiting for the future and what is currently unknown to us.”

]]>“Making jewelry started as very much an experiment, a hobby,” she recounted in an interview with Metal Magazine. “A friend showed me how to work with casting wax, and as soon as I got my first pieces back I was hooked. It is still so cool to make something and have it transformed into metal. I never get bored of that.”

Her line of jewelry, Datter Industries, is said to be inspired by ancient artifacts, talismans, ritual, and the natural world. “I’ve always been interested in meaning being attributed to objects, to wearing things that have some sort of power or story behind them,” says Blegvad. “I’m just lucky that other people seem to want to wear them too.”
“I’ve been fortunate that I’ve only been asked to work on projects I’m actually interested in,” she adds. “I think art directors are trying to choose artists who they can tell will be right for the job and that includes being interested. So all of my jobs have been pretty good to me, nice problems to solve.”
Her work – whether admired from afar or adorned on the body, is sure to spark joy in your life.

]]>The post Add a Playful Twist to Your Jewelry Collection appeared first on 5dwallpaper.com.
]]>Run by jewelry designers Elise Shatz and Shelby Scudder, the majority of their products are cast from recycled metals. In order to minimize overproduction and waste, everything is “made to order” with sustainable practices. “We acknowledge that there will always be countless ways to improve,” the two designers noted in an interview with Buzzwork, “especially as the business grows, and we strive to learn more every day.”
Their products include charms and necklaces, all made of gold and silver. Every component is sourced in the United States and assembled locally, with none of the production taking place somewhere they can’t see with their own eyes. In order to reduce further waste, the two found a caster in New York that primarily uses recycled metals.
But while sustainability is clearly important to both Shatz and Scudder, humor is another part of the equation. “Avoiding ‘preachiness’ is a huge priority for us,” they admit, “so humor definitely plays a role in the way we communicate our values.” As such, their designs are meant to be taken with a grain of salt. It’s the sort of ironic/nostalgic accessories you’d want to sport.

]]>Her pieces are a blend of modern and traditional, with personal influences that include French Art Deco as well as Zwart’s fascination with ancient civilizations. “I’ve always loved the Art Deco era of jewelry,” she shared in an interview with Flaunt.
“It was so architectural and linear with the use of such unusual shapes of stones and diamonds, and I design in a very linear way, so I have loved creating a more modern take on Deco. On the other hand, I’ve also been fascinated by ancient civilizations for as long as I can remember, so being able to create ancient-looking coins, in solid gold was always an ambition of mine, and so was combining those two worlds, Ancient and Deco, and that’s really the voice and foundation of our collection.”
Her love affair with jewelry began while in Guatemala, working for a fair-trade non-profit with local artisans. It was there, on the shores of Lake Atitlan, that she began to study the art of jewelry metalworking and was immediately enamored with the notion of being able to sculpt pieces from the ground up that could be worn every day and passed down from generation to generation.
“I also have kept distribution strategic, so that when clients come across our brand they feel like they’ve discovered it, and it won’t be something all of their friends have,” she adds. It might be that special gift you’d want to gift yourself after the holiday season is done and over with.

]]>The post Add a Pop of Embroidery to Your Outfit with Reilly Case’s Jewelry appeared first on 5dwallpaper.com.
]]>“There’s something so very special about fabric that has been delicately hand-embroidered,” writes Case on her website. “I fell deeply in love with the pieces but also the process: sitting on the couch with a cup of tea, a cat on the lap and a needle and thread in hand. It became such a mindful practice for me. Something that I genuinely need to do to feel centered.”
Now she embroiders pieces that can either be worn around your neck or hung on your wall. Her modern hoop art and one of a kind jewelry pieces are sold on her Etsy shop, but she also encourages her many fans to take to the practice of embroidery themselves and let the needle and thread draw them in.
“If you are looking for something to give you a moment’s peace; Something to focus your thoughts when they are spinning and the world seems so busy, embroidery is a lovely place to start,” she writes.
In the meanwhile, we’ll follow her Instagram page for some inspiration:
