Circle Bunches Necklace Herkimer Quartz

Heather Guidero graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2002, with a BFA in Jewelry and Metalsmithing. Her jewelry consists of a series of simple geometric shapes inspired by elements of modernist design. The use of wire and thin sheet allows her to incorporate numerous shapes into larger forms that are lightweight yet have a presence of their own on the body. She primarily uses sterling silver, gold, and select precious and semi-precious stones along with oxidized silver to provide greater contrast between silver and gold and accentuate the graphic nature of the designs.
