Today I was lucky enough to be at Lireille Gallery when a very nice couple came to pick up two of my “Kelp” Rings. Below is a picture of the rings being worn for the first time.
Two of my pieces “Coral Cookie” Necklace and “Coral Pillows with Blue Pearl” Earrings made from recycled fine silver are now in the window of the gallery near the entrance. While taking a picture of the pieces I ended up taking a partial self portrait. Gallery owner Yan Liu can also be seen in the window reflection.
The gallery is located one storefront off the corner of Monte Vista and Piedmont Ave, at 3980 Piedmont Ave, in Oakland.
Fellow art jeweler Fran Grinels and I placed new jewelry in Oakland’s Lireille Gallery of Contemporary Jewelry and Art today, and were fortunate to catch a preview of the upcoming show ” Pioneers in Art: CSU East Bay Sculpture Department Advanced Student Exhibit “. The show opens Friday, June 5th 2009. Enjoy a preview of the show via the mid-install process photos below.
