J L Walsh Metalsmith
Jennifer and John Walsh live in Bozeman, MT. They
fabricate comtemporary jewelry using ancient techniques and materials.
A variety of surface treatments are used on the stones chosen for the
jewelry to mimic decay, feeling that people are attracted to the look
because it serves as a metaphor to the wear and tear of our daily modern
lives. Incorporated into their jewelry are stones gathered from local
rivers, hand-cut bones, shells, and bits of wood. |
