Lucy Folk Jewellery (design diary)

Lucy Folk

‘Bejeweled Tortilla Chip’ Ring (Taqueria collection): sterling silver, 5 microns of 23.5ct yellow gold, citrines, orange and yellow sapphires.

Lucy Folk is based in Melbourne; she studied Gold and Silversmithing at RMIT University, where she graduated from in 2003.  Her  jewellery is inspired by food, Mexican food. I like her designs because it’s so different, these two pieces are from her collection inspired by Mexico, about the joy and unexpected beauty of food. Her jewellery is joyful. It is beautifully executed with amazing textures.  She loves playing with colors,  textures, shapes. which are sort of the things i want to incorporate in my ten piece project, to look at shapes, textures and colors, to bring out my theme.
