FEATURED WORK

Gail Goldin, upscale Los Angeles jewelry designer, has introduced her bold and brilliant collection, "MODERN MYTHS" to rave reviews. This inspirational body of work combines ancient, diverse and lucky treasures from all over the world that Gail has personally collected. "Power Objects" such as Egyptian Scarabs, Chinese Jade Prayer Stones, Ethiopian Medicine Man Carvings, African Bone Masks, Buddahs, Fertility Carvings, Aphrodisiac Elements, and Native American Fetishes are dramatically combined with contemporary semi-precious stones and set in sterling silver. The pieces are individually handcrafted and are truly alluring, wearable objects d'art for the sophisticated buyer wanting a unique and exclusive look.

From her Studio City workshop, Ms Goldin spoke of her "spiritual approach to unlocking the mysteries of these ancient power objects." Her excitement at the discovery of these treasures is reflected in the primitive strength and elegance of the designs.

Gail Goldin's MODERN MYTHS collection is on exhibition at various craft shows throughout the United States. Her work is also available at museum shops, galleries, fine jewelry stores and boutiques. She can be contacted at her studio. Tel/Fax (818) 509-06220
