Filed under: Exclusive Celebrities Jewelry — Tags: , , , — flirty @ 3:46 pm

If you’re an admirer of beautifully crafted handmade jewelry, or looking for jewelry with an organic sensibility. Than the SHIRLEY EPHRAIM collection inspired by the artistry of ancient hand weaving and lace making techniques, is the perfect accessory for you.

SHIRLEY EPHRAIM Jewelry Collection

Nigerian born, Shirley Ephraim’s fascination with hand crafted woven and embroidered accessories began in her father’s village in Nigeria where she spent summers among the local artisans as a young girl.

Designing with the idea of movement, texture and draping, Ephraim focuses on creating pieces with an earthy yet luxurious feel. The craftsmanship behind the necklaces, earrings and bracelets, evokes the time and rare quality of human touch dedicated to each design.

The SHIRLEY EPHRAIM collection is made entirely with sustainable, natural and ethically sourced materials including precious stones, luxurious handmade silk fibers, organic plant extracts, recycled 19th century sterling silver, low-impact Swarovski crystals and organic nacre. Each rare, precious gemstone in the collection is hand-picked and no two gemstones are identical. Within these materials, yarn is the essential medium. Each thread and fiber is intricately woven, sculpted and shaped into a piece of breathtaking jewelry.
