THE HANDS BEHIND THE WORK
Sabrina and Carolyn are not simply wearing the jewelry.
They are goldsmiths.
I trained them both in my atelier and they are part of the lineage of makers who bring these pieces from an idea, to metal, to something that can be worn and treasured.
For me, this is one of the most meaningful parts of “Off the Canvas”: the work continues through the hands of the next generation.

“Renaissance Dream” and “Gemma” — 22-karat gold, precious gemstones and cultured saltwater pearls available in the Frick Museum Shop.
Seven images. One story.
And this is only the beginning…
