New Designs...Super Fine in '09


I am always thrilled to see new work. I see how one idea comes out, and it just makes me want to see more.

So here are some new pieces...

We added stones to our small Mandala hoop. These are set with fiery orange sapphires. I loved the stone-set large hoops, and had some requests for a smaller size. (I've been really enjoying the warmth of the orange sapphires in other designs as well.)

Our Fleur design is set in all diamonds this time (G, VS1, for lots of sparkle.) I added a twist ring above it, for extra fluidity. It is regal and sublime.

The positive and negative space of the Cutout Mandala continues to intrigue me. It has a "pillow" top, meaning it curves out toward you. The piece has a lot of movement to it. This one is in blue sapphire, the color of distant mountains in the late afternoon.

Let me know if you have any thoughts on these pieces or other designs that we create. You can see more of our work on the JJD website.
