Margaret Pomeranz

The Design Files have just posted an interview with Margaret Pomeranz on AMCI's exhibition - Margaret & David: 25 Years of Talking Movies. Featured in the exhibition are Margaret's trademark earrings by her friend Margaret Kirkwood. Now excuse me while I try to find the facebook page for Margaret Pomeranz's Earrings!

Ice Ice Baby!

Bought myself a treat today - icey pole molds shaped as rings! The description on the website suggests that the rings are for children, but I think all jewellers should own a set.

Eye Catch

Renee Bevan (NZ) - Large puffy rose brooch worn by Bill Riley

I wish I was able to get to the exhibition 'Eye Catch: Jewellery and Photography' on at Object Space in New Zealand! Coming from a background in costume design, I'm particularly interested in the role of jewellery in portraiture. People watching (from a cafe - not in a creepy way) has to be one of my favourite pass-times. The reasons why an individual decides to adorn themselves with a particular item fills me with endless fascination!

Rings From 'Out To Play'

Sterling Silver and Enamel Paint

Golden Bell

During yet another boring day at work last week I was reading the paper and came across this article. I love the idea that an experience from years ago can still be experienced the same way today.
