Crafts CouncilDirectoryStefanie Ying Lin CheongGeoanthropologyAboutA research based collection investigating the way humans have and are manipulating, enhancing, exploiting, inventing and problem solving with rocks. Each rock has been part of a process invented to improve our daily lives spanning 3 million years. The work is an open conversation around the use of natural materials. Some I have recreated and some which I have enlisted experts to make. The jewels act as conversation pieces, interchangeable specimen frames to hold the different rock inserts.Stefanie Ying Lin CheongGlasgow, ScotlandGeoanthropology Collectoion, Susan CastilloCollection of all jewels - 9ct Interchangeable Specimen ring with North Sea Core insert, Silver Interchangeable Specimen brooch small with Studio Frostwood glaze waste insert, Silver Interchangeable Specimen brooch large with Faience insert.
