A welcome from Bruce. “My passion for jewelry has evolved through my love of the arts. From my early years as an artist and painter in New York City to later apprenticeship, studies and work in jewelry - my interest in the fine, applied, and performing arts has been intrinsically linked with my personal and professional development. I see beauty in everyday objects and in the natural world. From my perspective, realism and abstraction, modern and historical influences, conceptual and textural qualities all find their way into the execution of fine jewelry. And then again, sometimes, a stone is just a stone.”
