Goldrush Friday: Day & Night

friday i had lunch with my friend Sandro from Salut le Garçons in the heart of La Marais and afterwards it was time to see everything at Goldrush. Met Valery and Javier and a lot of the artists who were there showing their creations. I talked to several of them - people from Australia, Belgium, Lebanon, Germany, Spain, Japan, USA, and so much more. it never ceases to amaze me how talented and creative jewelry artists can be. the craftsmanship is out of this world and the beauty of it all is astounding. After trying on as many rings as possible it was time for a party (petit comité) with delicious champagne, appetizers and the most fun surprise: Valery invited tooth gem artist Anya from Chai Beauty in the UK and we all had tiny crystals placed on our teeth (it's so tiny and delicate and cute). I dont't think anyone left without one! I finally met Jonathan Wahl, who is the director of the Jewelry Center at the 92 Street Y and interviewed Valery, Marion Faisel and myself back in may to talk about the jewelry world. I cannot say how much this meant to me! Here are some photos from friday afternoon/night! a special thank you to: Clara, Ruby, Rosanna, Gina, Kiralee, Fernando, Marco and Sally! bisous!

this is my tiny tooth crystal!
