Bunny Shapiro Fine Jewelry: Crafting Solid Gold Charms and Special Keepsakes
The Inspiration Behind Bunny Shapiro Fine Jewelry
I have always been enamored with fine jewelry. Our family ring, designed and worn by my late grandfather and then re designed and worn by my late grandmother, was the first piece of gold and diamonds I consciously set my heart on.
Crafting Solid Gold Charms
When I started my jewelry company in 2015, I had to rely on pre made charms, made by others. I always dreamed of having my own collection of hand made solid gold charms - special keepsakes for clients to collect and share with their family generations.
Evolution of Charms: From Wax Sculpting to Polymer Clay
Over the past few years I have learned through trial and error, how the process of casting works. My first pieces were sculpted in wax and cast in silver and gold. When I learned how much easier it was to sculpt using polymer clay, my charms started to evolve. I have also enjoyed casting every day objects - our shell pendant is the best example of this.
