Andrea Roberts, "Wave Pendant," 2022

sterling silver, keum-boo, garnet, 18 inch chain

Andrea Roberts' jewellery design is inspired by shape, color, texture, and unique gems. Her creations often embody sculpture making them art pieces to wear with the emphasis on one-of-a-kind timeless beauty. The balance of materials, textures, colors and unique gems is what makes her pieces exceptional, infused with the artists' creative mind and soul.  Andrea often uses a technique called Keum-Boo.  This process of “attached gold” is an ancient jewelry technique originating in Korea, which is used to attach gold foil to sterling silver. The bonding of gold and silver are achieved through pressure and heat. During this fusion-bonding, atoms are exchanged leaving us with a collision of two metals as one.
