FORMATION
Formation is where my filigree practice began.
Each piece of handmade sterling silver filigree jewelry is constructed entirely in silver — including the filler wires — placed by hand with tweezers and soldered using a simple butane torch.
No tension settings.
Only disciplined flame control.
These works are studies in patience, structure, and precision — the technical foundation for the sculptural filigree forms that followed.
Formation represents the beginning of a practice in artisan filigree jewelry, where technique slowly became language..
