Rock Garden Brooch - Silver
This rock garden brooch was created as a memory and a small keepsake from our family holiday in Slovenia and Bohemia. During my hikes I collected some small limestones in the Soča River in Slovenia and kept them as a souvenir. Later that summer, my family and I spent a few days at our cottage in Bohemia near the Divoká Orlice River. I picked up a few stones in the river there as well. I rediscovered them in my pocket on my return and decided to use them to create a memory of a beautiful summer. I separated the stones from both rivers and set them in silver like precious stones. I added the sedum blossom in the middle to further contrast the colors of the stones. The brooch thus got its name for the way in which it is composed, like a small rock garden.
This brooch is a unique, one-of-a-kind original.

Crassulaceae Collection
The source of inspiration for the Crassulaceae Collection are succulents (Latin, plantae crassulaceae, i.e., succulent plants). Their fragility and indomitable strength to persevere in inhospitable conditions speaks volumes about the nature of us humans. Collections inspired by the plant kingdom are like a peephole into nature, offering a glimpse into the natural world. The jewels transform their wearers into gardeners, able to cultivate life-giving connections with nature within the organism of the city, or that of a purely human community.
