Made in China...

Silver Ring 'Spring of Flower'

Conceptual designed silver ring - 'Outstanding sense of humour'

We are so used to living in a world full of 'made in China' now, but when you think of these 3 words, what will come with them? Cheap, Duplicating, Formulating...have a look at these creations, can you relate to any of those things that inscribed in you mind?

Silver Bangle ' Life Circle'

Silver Pendant ' Pandora's Box' (lucky version)

Meant for me

Just got this pendant from Beyond today, a few months ago it already caught my eye, hadn't made up my mind back then...kept thinking about it from time to time. Dimi said ' if you come back for it, it's actually looking for you... sounds spooky

Rings from Paddington Markets

Paddington Markets is the heaven shopping for Jewels, but hell if you are looking for anything cheap, I got these two stunningly crafted rings for a suprisingly 'reasonable' price...

Glebe Markets

I met so many amazingly talented people there, though they come & go... what attracts me the most is not just the vibrant markets , it's the artistic suburban culture embraces you from the moment you turn into the corner of Glebe Point Rd...

Meet the Silvermonk

The only way you get to know Silvermonk's work is to meet her in person, listen to her talking about her creation, & maybe someday get thc chance to watch her sitting at her bench creating something delicious...

and here's my 'neighbour' Ms Silvermonk: http://www.silvermonk.blogspot.com/

Voola Taka - Greek Magic

Red Coral Marble Stone Earings

Voola's got this wild talent that she can basically turn just about anything into something...What would you call this magical mind: a witch, an elf?

Kruvell Silver - Butterflies

It seems the only thing I walk away with from Kruvell each time is Butterfly...it's always nice to have a chat with the owner about his pround collections from probably around the world, the only thing he won't tell you is the names of his designers...

Kruvell's shop: 401 King St Newtown

Surasit Liphan - Thai Silver

If you haven't seen Surasit's creation, you won't catch the real spirit of Thai Silver: passion & devotion...no one creats silver like Surasit does, the mimic detail is so imtimidating, makes you feel like the real life object which he's drawn inspiration from becomes the reflection of his creation...
Decided to travel down under all the way from Thailand to study art, ended up something he'd never set his heart for: Jewelry design, then it becomes his life...


Surasit's shop: Kiosk 4,395a Pitt St (World Square) Sydney

Kristina Brenke

Kristina has the ability to expand the softness in silver. As metallic material, silver doesn't normally strike people as soft and warm, you can find it in Kristina's creation, the delicate pieces I got from her speak the most...

Mel's Favourite...

Mel is my collegue, she's definitely not a die hard fan for any type of Jewel. She's been keepping her coolness about my silver collection while so many comments uploading to my ears everyday. & she 'found' this pendant, the one & only from my silver world that makes sparkles in her eyes whenever she sees it, or maybe it's just the reflection of the golden amber

Solar Storm

I call it Solar Storm as there isn't the slightest chance that I can get anywhere near the real one, so let it be the storm on my neck...

Start from here...

Where do I begin? How have I found my way in this quiet yet full of inner excitement world? Every piece silver Jewel here has a story to tell...how were they born? how did they end up here? Yet I still haven't figured out the best way to tell...
