Alice Cicolini / Pietro Nicoletti

* Please note: *
The blog will be on a short summer break.
Next post will be Wednesday!

I bow to the ebony temple (rings) of Alice Cicolini. The British designer, who was inspired by "the sacred architecture and patterns of the Silk Route," is a founding member of IKKIS, "a foundation [which] supports world-class craftsmanship in India."

Here's another ring that may have been inspired by a trip to a Hindu temple. Green rubber ring depicting the Trimurti deity by Italy's Pietro Nicoletti.

Even more jewellery:

• Temple St. Clair (New York) - gold & gems


• Anabel Campbell (UK) - bead mosaics


• Akshat Raghava (Virginia) - rollercoaster earrings
