Paper and metal, what a fabulous combination for this jewelry collection from Susan Fleming. She uses silver to create bezels and then insde she includes silk-screened Japanese paper called chiyogama paper. The colors are wonderful and remind me of enamel. She explains her approach on her web site: My most recent body of work is inspired by wonderfully decorative chiyogami papers. These hand silk screened papers, which often display organic or geometric elements, can be incredibly ornate. Based on bright kimono textiles, these designs were developed in the Edo period as woodlbock prints and used to enliven farmhouse interiors. I extract small scenes from these papers, set them in sterling silver, and then protect them under a thin waterproof layer of resin.

Have fun browsing the collection of necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and rings. All styles are available in any of the thirty-six papers shown. Choose a style, choose a paper, and we'll make it.

So, cool. Customer can either select from her ready made jewelry or design their own. She's got a whole page full of paper samples to choose from, sort of the whole design your own jewelry trend again. The chains on her necklaces are pretty cool, but she makes all kinds of jewelry for this paper collection including earrings, rings, and bracelets.
