18K yellow gold, purple enamel

Exacting forms of high karat gold are skillfully folded to bear the fruits of this agile composition. Enamored with the natural life flourishing before her, Jacqueline Ryan sculpts a work in the like of a shapely mollusk. Admiring its undulating surfaces, she forms two pieces of gold, fitted to the inter-workings of her mind's imagination. Brilliantly, the artist adheres the portions together with carefully placed golden pins. With the slight sway of the head, or the gentle brush of the finger, the pieces may move softly in space. Into the heart of the work lay the exquisite allure of blushed, purple enamel, delicately brushed against the interior of her piece, an addition to further its dimensional complexity and to provoke curiosity once worn. As light as a feather, one may never tell how dynamic the adornment is to wear when it hinders barely any weight upon the ear. A pleasure to behold as it replenishes the soul.
