There are many different categories of jewelry, among them;
fashion jewelry, fine jewelry, and art jewelry. I really think
that more so than ever, despite those people who said I didn’t
really fit in a category. I think that the boundaries of each of
those categories are being blurred, and it is the designers who
can do that who are moving forward and really sort of taking
center-stage.
Fashion jewelry follows trends. I can’t say that I’ve ever really
followed trends, despite having been a commercial model for all
those years. I don’t really follow fashion jewelry trends, but
there is no way trends don’t filter down into what you’re doing
into your consciousness. I read all the magazines. I look at
everything. I look at what kind of colors are trending, so if
what is happening in the fashion jewelry world is affecting my
work, it might be with colors of stone, direction I’m going, or
shapes that seem to be popular. I think there’s a place for all
of those in fashion jewelry, but what I really see trending is an
appreciation for handcrafting. It’s not as cold. There’s a warmth
and there’s an intrinsic value that people don’t necessarily know
they’re responding to; but they are.
