I am way behind in sharing new acquisitions like this Sweet Heart brooch (2018) by Zachary Lectenberg (@yotburd ). Lectenberg creates jewelry that is as graphic as it is narrative. Bringing his illustration alive through champlevé enamels, Lechenberg created deceitfully simple looking ornaments that nostalgically evoke his 1990s childhood spent reading comic books, collecting (and trading) Garbage Pail Kid cards, and skateboarding. The images he creates on his jewelry are both comical and unsettling. In this brooch, titled Sweet Heart, Lechtenberg has illustrated a comic book-like figure with blue hair licking an ice cream cone. Next to her is a cherry with a laughing face. And, above her head a thought bubble with a red heart. The reverse is patterned with scratched hearts and skulls and the words “SWEET HEART” in the center. Swipe to see the fabulous illustration that accompanies the brooch. ❤️ Happy Friday! #contemporaryjewelry #nyjw21

All dressed up and enjoying #nycjw21 programming from the comfort of my home! Thank you @siennapatti for these “rad” stickers. For now they are stand-ins for the brooches by @dolorescanard, @martamattsson_jewellery, and @_mallory_weston_ that I’ll someday add to my personal collection! ❤️🥰💎 #contemporaryjewelry
On my way to #nycjw21! I only wish I was staying longer to take in more of the incredible offering of in-person events. I’ll be enjoying most events virtually but, even so, it is sure to be a week to remember. Congratulations @bellaneyman and @j_b_j_o_n_e_s. See you tomorrow to talk about @wallacechanart with my co-authors @melaniecgrant @jewelsandthegang @mingliuwrites @julietdelarochefoucauld ✈️ 💎 Repost from @nycjewelryweek

So excited to find this beauty on my desk Monday morning! Winged Beauty: The Butterfly Jewellery Art of Wallace Chan (@wallacechanart ) is officially released next month but I got my hands on an advance copy. Five authors - @jewelcurator @melaniecgrant @jewelsandthegang @mingliuwrites @julietdelarochefoucauld - each offer a perspective on Chan’s butterfly ornaments and it’s fascinating to read each of my co-authors unique approach to the material. ❤️🐛🦋❤️
