1970's/80's inspired French Vogue 2011 Photoshoot by Hans Feurer featuring her jewelry. |
If you have not discovered Patricia Von Musulin's work then today is the day. If you already know her jewelry you may not have seen some of the pieces pictured in this post so enjoy! Patricia is truly an artist molding natural forms, which seem to be living beings, for us to wear on our arms, fingers, necks and ears. There is a modern feel to her work which is striking yet grounded by her material choices and shapes. She hit her stride as a designer in the 1990's and was featured in various fashion magazines. Her work is highly sought after by fashion collectors and wearers alike. If ever there was a jeweler to collect, it would include her body of work.
By definition most vintage sellers and collectors focus on vintage as encompassing the 1970's/80's and earlier. However, again collecting her 1990's pieces - which will be vintage in 10 years seems like a great idea. Heck, by some standards it is already considered vintage. Either way I consider it a must! See her current designs at: http://www.patriciavonmusulin.com/index2.html
I favor her cuffs in lucite, bone and wood. The large decadent swirls wrapping and morphing around one's wrist, ah! The met museum actually has begun to build a nice archive of her work that can be seen online. She has also donated some of her work to the museum, which can be seen online at :http://www.metmuseum.org/collections/search-the-collections/80004636
