Jewelry Gets Buggy

Filed in archive Jewelry Designers by tammy on August 11, 2006

, aka the study of bugs and insects, takes on a whole new dimension thanks to Mikel Lefler of Bijoux du monde. It is no surprise this jewelry designer began as a scientist.

From Local jewelry designers create buzz with baubles:

She started casting them in resin paperweights, and was soon creating earrings, pendants, and rings with everything from houseflies to ladybugs.

Lefler captures most specimens herself. Perusing parks with a butterfly net, and then sealing them in jar with a deadly gas.

Others she orders from a butterfly farm. Some friends even bring her carcasses they find on their windowsill.

A trip to Mikel Lefler's web site, www.bijouxdumonde.net, offers a selection of jewelry pieces. Each includes either an entire insect or wings and is made of resin with silver bezels. The site also includes a list of retail shops and shows.

Add your response to Jewelry Gets Buggy: Response from: mandy (08/18/06 5:11pm) I think these items are beautiful, but I do NOT like the fact that the artist kills the bugs just for the jewelry! Response from: htuythg (09/17/09 9:57am) Allen Iverson broke out his newest signature shoe, the Reebok Answer XII, during the first game between the Buy Reebok Answer XII Invictus Shoes in November 2008. The Reebok Answer XII Invictus On Sale basketball shoe features a leather upper with internal mock bootie construction that provides maximum comfort. The Nike zoom BB IIreceived its design cues from Japanese-born Reebok designer Nike Zoom BB II Basketball Shoes, who also designed the Answer X. Both Winfield and Kanata have been trading off between the past three Buy Cheap Nike Zoom BB II Men's Basketball shoes to allow for a longer design window and more attention to the development process. It could be argued that Iverson�s series lost its gusto during the VI to IX era. Luckily, for Iverson and his fans, the line has been in good hands the past three years. The mid panel is also generously perforated for greater breathability and the Nike Shox Vc IV Men's Basketball Shoe Black suede toe sets off a nice balance to the simple yet sharp overall look.? The outsole features a sticky rubber wavy herringbone traction pattern and cushioning comes via DMX Ride.
