Christy Klug
CONTEMPORARY SEMIPRECIOUS
Grand Rapids, MI
A wry sense of humor and an affection for the understated pervade Christy Klug’s unusual enamel jewelry. She pairs alternative materials and methods with traditional enameling and precious metals such as gold and silver. Her use of graphite on some of her jewelry highlights her abilities as an illustrator. A luster fired on the surface ensures that the applied graphite remains, as if frozen in amber. With monochrome palettes, Klug accomplishes evocative and unusual presentations in personal adornment.
