Those of us that have an affinity to rustic/nature inspired beauty in jewelry, or the voluptuous sensuality of bygone eras have finally found a one stop shop for earthy and heavenly elegance! Shahasp Valentine, an artisan specializing in PMC (precious metal clay) has a line of jewelry fit for a queen (’Modern Artifacts’ or ‘Precieux’), or the rugged individualist in us all (’Organic Series’).

We love the variety of her design–many items are shown with variations, such as different stones, sizes, and chains, which makes the item as individual as the person wearing it. For a visual example, let’s look at “Icicle” below, which is from the ‘Precieux’ or ‘Modern Artifacts’ side of her art:

Shown with a gold chain, and without stones surrounding the center stone, the second picture has a subdued regal air, while the first has a cool, understated, yet richly divine splendor. These are just TWO of the variations available in this one necklace…and they are all worth a peeky.

Her Organic Series jewelry has a more free-flowing design, very natural and unstructured. We felt an immediate affinity toward ‘Knife Edge’ and like the dark beauty of ‘Lily’.

And finally, our personal favorites of her collection: Rococo,Nouveau Diamond Necklace, and Opera.

Sure conversation starters with excellent design, and a perfectly captured and balanced expression of romantic sentiment of bygone eras.
