Sources of inspiration

Searching through jewelry collections, you might easily observe that the sources of inspiration have been the same for many jewelry designers over time. Nature, characters of legend, love, universe and others, that’s life as we know it that is reflected within their work. It is something that applied 100 or 50 years ago and this is how it still goes today. The difference is in detail and the final creation depends on one’s personal touch and craftsmanship. It is art in all the cases and you can hardly say which creation is more beautiful than the other. It’s a matter of taste I think.

Take these examples for instance: jewelry belonging to similar collections (I’m referring to their theme) from Carrrera Y Carrera (a Spanish brand with more than 125 years of jewelry tradition) and Jewellery Theatre (a young Russian brand since ’98).
