Mokume Gane & Anticlastic Twist Earrings

Fashion Newsweek had an interesting article about Stephen LeBlanc Art Jewelry and some of the work he has done using the old Japanese art of Mokume Gane. He forges Gold and Palladium together to create a very interesting wood grain metal.

Stephen LeBlanc is a Metal Smith who is now making art jewelry and I am glad that he has made the transition. His work is stunning and the industry is starting to take notice. As Palladium becomes more focused in the jewelry world, we should see more innovations in it use. The Mokume Gane look is the tip of the artistic iceberg in Luxury Palladium use.

It's Time For Palladium Jewlery; Watches, Rings and Wedding Rings

Fashion jewelry designers such as Cartier, Parmigiani and Chopard have been implementing Palladium in their high end jewelry such as watches, cocktail rings and wedding rings for the consumer. In fact, the differences between platinum and palladium have show both metals to be in high demand and included in several high end collections.

Palladium is a Platinum Group Metal mined naturally white and comes directly from the earth. There are rarely any differences between Platinum and Palladium beyond price and weight, and unlike unnatural “white gold,” 950 Palladium shines naturally white forever without rhodium plating.
