Natasha's jewelry is an exploration of themes from Asian art and traditional jewelry. She is enamored with the craftsmanship and meaning behind jewelry and strives to bring these qualities to her work. She has traveled from the plains of India to the hinterlands of Mongolia gaining inspiration and understanding along the way. As a Fulbright scholar, she was fortunate enough to be a guest artist in the neighborhood of the Kathmandu Valley that has created magnificent Buddhist treasures for centuries. The jewelry is meant to be worn and enjoyed.
Look for the expressive curve of the jasmine bud and the arched window that evokes architecture along the silk road. There is also the flourish pattern that is universally appealing, but is actually derived from Tibetan furniture decorations, and the leaf from the sacred bodhi tree of India.
The pieces are unique and designed to be timeless with beautiful stones and great attention to craft.
