Cylindrical glass beads with faceted sapphire rondelles

Maker, Claire Kahn illustrates a feast for the eyes in a progression of direct contrast with simple, yet complex versatility. Beginning a beaded segment from a specific selection of color, she skillfully stops and begins anew throughout the composition, introducing fresh, differing spectral vocabulary throughout the piece. In this way, the maker evokes distinct feeling in this multi-faceted, visual narrative. With discerning choice of gems, sheembellishes its changing body with complimentary hues in sapphire stone. A supple composition with a unique variety of expression, Kahn beckons one to adorn the piece in a way they so choose. To recall a color, a pattern or distinguishable character of one's prerogative, the maker emboldens the wearer in a composition of intimate design.
