Umber is a Seattle based artist that works jewels like small paintings, with stories and messages to tell. I love the way she combines these visual elements with natural stones, beautiful!

“I fell in love with the idea of jewelry as small scale art pieces that individual people choose to place on their bodies.  There is nothing more intimate than that contact on skin.  When one chooses to adorn their self with a piece of jewelry, that jewelry can become a symbol, a reminder, a message – be it private or public.  It can be a keeper of experience, the medium through which we layer on strength, history, joy and beauty.”
