            Intimate.  Simple.  Natural.
 
The Koi™ and Wabi Sabi™ collections are cousins to my original gold mokume gane.
The collections incorporate metals that I've used before, but in a new way.
 
Unlike my mokume gane pattern work, the Koi™ patterns are uncontrolled and have
an Impressionistic quality that invites the wearer to interpret the imagery.
 
Wabi sabi is the Japanese art of unconventional beauty. The Wabi Sabi™ patterns
are deeply etched and patinated to bring out their earthy beauty. 
 
               
    
    The Koi™ Collection                                           The Wabi Sabi™ Collection
 
    Leaves on the water                                   Rustic and humble                          
    a small pointillist painting                          an ancient door is covered
   like reading a cloud                                    in abstract beauty 
        
                
          The Koi™ and Wabi Sabi™ collections are available in
 
      five widths - 5, 6, 7, 8 & 10mm - and four Seasons:

       Each ring has a unique pattern that's yours alone. 
 
And within each pattern are images waiting to be discovered. 
                                                    
 
                    Sometimes you'll find calligraphy.
 
 
                             
                             Or maybe a whale.
 
 
       
    Or even a camouflaged seahorse (yup, he's really in there!)
