I strive to connect the past with the modern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile selecting pieces from the Bling Bucket, I was captivated by a pale jade necklace. I felt drawn to explore the intricately carved beads and pendant and was particularly intrigued by the chain and floral elements. I also picked out a necklace adorned with brown seed beads that matched the brown stripe on the jade flower. The oval frame, which I dyed, came from a repurposed pair of bone earrings. I aimed to echo the shapes of these adopted elements in the copper sections I crafted to unify my design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, my goal was to honour the beautifully carved shapes made by the artisans of the original pieces.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jennifer Illanes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53832848441636,"sku":"EXC-ILLAN-JEN-00001","price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0797\/5508\/4068\/files\/jenniferi.png?v=1778788841","url":"https:\/\/www.shopalbertacraft.com\/products\/exc-illan-jen-00001","provider":"Alberta Craft Council","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
