Sarah Graham Metalsmithing by Jacob Resneck
A rising star on the jewelry scene, Sarah Graham's medium is precious metals and jewels. The rings are what caught our attention so it's not surprising that Graham herself reports them as some of her most popular work and they're "collected fanatically!"
Looking at the individual pieces it's not in the least surprising that the California artist reports drawing inspiration from works of antiquity from as far afield as both Americas, Africa, India and Europe.

Leslie Shershow Jewelry
Boston-area metalsmith and jewelry designer Leslie Shershow finds inspiration in topics as disparate as found objects, stuffed animals, and the exploitation of nature by humans. Despite the wide array of subject matter, her collections share a refined ruggedness and a rough-hewn beauty. Our favorite collection is her Alaska Series, with its antlers, rifles, bear heads and horns. Selections from the Alaska Series have recently...

Periodic Rings
Brooklyn-based husband-and-wife team, Itsnoname, bring some sexy back to the periodic table of elements. While the solid platinum version might be a bit too costly for most, the sterling silver ring should enable anyone to put their gangster nerd stamp on foreheads—or at least make it seem that way.via Computerlove...

Four-Leaf Clover Necklace
Made from a real clover painted with copper and then dipped in 24 karat gold, the Four-Leaf Clover Necklace by Little Yellow Girl is the latest item of jewelry we've found that elevates something common to finery. I love the idea of wearing actual plant-life encased in gold around my neck. With its recently reduced price of $52, the necklace makes for a beautiful...

Sourcing her materials from friends and family who have been kind enough to offer (actual) parts of themselves, van der Glas created a stunningly innovative debut collection which features human hair and teeth. Already...

Mad.Elephant Jewelry
We love the ingenuity of Mad.Elephant's jewelery designs, which includes items as disparate as chicken bone knuckle ring, a 22-caliber bullet shell bracelet and a dove's foot bracelet. Of her work she says, "Art is the filter in my brain that sorts through and deals with all the thoughts in my head which are numerous and sometimes hard to deal with. I heal myself...
