 .07ct Pink Sapphire, 22k Yellow Gold, Sterling Silver Oxidized Band  $2080

     These national award-winning designers believe that beautiful jewelry is artful, precise, and everlasting. Influenced by both ancient and modern styles, from Etruscan era jewels to urban architecture, the husband-and-wife design team creates granulated custom jewelry with colorful gemstones. Their work pushes the boundaries of traditional 22 karat yellow gold granulation, a technique in which tiny gold
spheres are fused to the surface of a similar gold alloy. The already complicated process requires utmost precision: If overfired, the gold granules will melt into the surface of the piece; if underfired, they will not adhere properly and fall off. Perfecting the granulation technique is a challenge, but going beyond small variations of the traditional 22 karat yellow gold recipe was unheard of-until now.

     Jack and Elizabeth have developed alloys and techniques for granulating in 22 karat rose and white gold, as well as platinum, offering an endless palette of options to customize a piece to their client's taste.
