Verso

VERSO jewelry is made from metal forms cast in handmade paper. The metal is dipped into a pulp of water and finely beaten paper fibers from a plant called abaca. The fibers cling to the metal and shrink as they dry. A tight, translucent paper skin is built up on the form over successive dips. The paper gets a final coating of resin to make it waterproof and durable.

The pieces are inspired by ancient Nordic, Roman, and Greek jewelry, art nouveau and rococo design, and details found in the oceans and forests of the Pacific Northwest, like seeds, petals, dewdrops, flowers, the curves of a river, ferns, leaves, tide pools.....
