In many houses there are drawers with keepsakes. They are often pieces of jewellery, broken, half lost, unfitting anymore yet hard to part with because they are full of memories. Memories of people, events, places or something else. These memories can be preserved in single piece of jewellery, and that is what I have the privilege to do sometimes. The piece that emerges is super; the combination of different styles and materials is very entertaining. Look through your drovers, do not let memories to fade away, be sold to pawnbrokers of remodelled in the way that past is totally erased. With my works i cut out the setting, seset everything in sterlig silver and reuse the gold if any is remaining on the top of the piece.
