Regular price $180.00

The jeweler's saw blade is a vital tool used in the fabrication of most metalwork, and often unsung. In this body of work these saw blades are repurposed and reconsidered as the beautiful metal components that they are. Here these rings are composed of saw blades with the teeth moving towards each other in looping and complex ways, allowing their forms to move in synchronicity. The steel rings are attached by gold solder and are comfortable to wear - the saw blade teeth are not felt by the wearer. Several styles feature white silicone detailing. 

These rings cannot be resized and are one of a kind.

MEET THE ARTIST
Sergey Jivetin

With an extensive background in metalsmithing, jewelry design, and engineering, Sergey Jivetin uses the skill set of a master craftsman to transform ordinary materials into potent conveyors of meaning.  His practice introduces miniature elements into unexpected settings to examine humanity's convoluted relationship with nature. The disappearance of Aral Sea in Uzbekistan, one of the greatest ecological disasters of the 20th century, heightened Jivetin's sensitivity to the preciousness of natural resources and their management.

Since coming to the United States in 1994, his practice has expanded from wearable pieces of jewelry to include experimental flatware, scientific and medical apparatus, sculptural objects and site-specific installations.
