We are very pleased to introduce a new body of work by guldsmed, Hanne Behrens. These pieces are the culmination of not only hours of work in textile techniques with oxidized silver and high carat gold, but also of years of peripatetic searching for nature’s jewels. Discovered on the beaches of Thailand to the streets of Boston, these varied curiosities gleam within knitted and woven gold and silver halos.
