Adorn-ment — is a form of worship, of worshiping pure beauty and love. It is recognizing and enhancing all the attributes that are admirable.
It brings me great pleasure to celebrate natures beauty and adorn you — with exotic, fine art jewelry, that is a golden reflection of your inner excellence.
I must warn you though! If you are looking for the cheapest, bargain basement deal, you have come to the wrong place. If are looking for something so special that no time or cost has been spared — something so rare, that no-one else in the world has it, then welcome to Zoein.
Even though we offer exceptional designs and the highest standard of handcrafted jewelry, there is no reason to worry about the price. You will find that our prices are very reasonable. Many of the pieces take several hundred hours of dedicated workmanship to finish and they are still much less expensive then other brands.
The Zoein Gallery is filled with a wide variety custom made and exotic pieces of jewelry. Some of the jewels are in my current collection and others are from previous collections.
I have chosen not to include the prices. You are investing in a jewel that you can wear and enjoy for the rest of your life. I will be happy to personally quote you the prices and availability on any of the jewels that you are interested in.
At Zoein we do not use any type of wax casting. All our jewelry is handmade! Each piece is formed, carved and constructed directly in 22 karat gold. This makes it impossible to duplicate the jewelry that we previously created. If you do fall in love with something that has already been sold, I can usually customize a similar piece and we can work on refining the design together.
I have done many commissioned designs for clients over the years and would be delighted to design something specially for you! Perhaps you have a gemstone that you would like to be reset, or some jewelry that you don’t wear anymore and would like to turn into something that you will enjoy and treasure.
I love creating custom, fine art jewelry and while occasionally I use 18 karat gold, I prefer not to use white gold. This is primarily because, gold itself is the color of the vibrant ‘sun’. It is the solar king of metals and silver its queen, the lustrous moon, and respectively, they are represented by the hues of yellow and white.
Many of the themes embodied in my designs are inspired by natural shapes and forms. Nature is the most prolific artist whose brush strokes paint the world with innumerable variations of harmonic beauty.
I am also inspired by the legacy of mythology: by the ancient races, barely visible in the mist of time, and the faint impressions of there rituals and beliefs. I am inspired by the mysteries of time, creation and simply by the remarkable nature of this wondrous universe in which we live.
My creative expression is not limited to gold jewelry. I also make Art d’Objet and have been known to spend several years just on one piece. I take after the tradition of renaissance artist and the masters of old, who not only reached across many artistic disciplines but also across many fields of endeavor.
I hope you find the gallery inspiring and perhaps even find a Zoein jewel that you would like to call your own.
I am at present in the process of revising this site. I am adding more pieces, a current events page and much more. I would appreciate any suggestions you may have. I can be reached - HERE
