Discover thoughtful details, tactile materials, and pieces made to become part of your story. One by one each model is a special "adornment,"  to reflect a "quiet" lifestyle rather than high fashion staging. Cynthia Dillon's inspiration is observational, improvisational and tactile rather than conceptual or machine-driven.  Pieces begin as "sketches" that evolve in the hand, often shifting form during the process, and the model in wax is  worked and filed over time. The result is a body of work that treats natural forms, personal memories and art-historical echoes as raw material for unique one by one jewelry sculptures. The pieces are made in the traditional lost wax (cire perdue) method;  because nothing is machine stamped. Small variations in line and curve are intentional. This produces an "imperfectly perfect" quality; slightly irregular forms that feel closer to nature than factory jewelry.  The visual language is consistent and recognizable, whimsical without being "cute," nature-based without being literal botanical copies. The consistency across decades of work is what makes the collection an individual artist's output rather than a commercial line.
