Tourmaline, Ceruleite, Turquoise, Red Coral, Amber, Rock Crystal, Chrysoprase, and Kyanite beads threaded on a gold filled wire collar. 

A collaborative exploration of Sophie Taeuber- Arp’s work led Colleen Herman and Mary MacGill to create a collection of unique jewelry alongside Colleen’s show of works on paper. Sophie’s compositions  – be it her paintings, beaded bags or architectural interiors – were all meticulously planned and executed, and yet emanate a certain spirit of spontaneity and play. Crafted over an afternoon celebrating this modality, each piece is a nod to Sophie’s work with palettes that echo the movement and hues of Colleen and Sophie’s compositions.
