The jewellery that I am making is imitating roses by using metal. Recently I have been imitating rose petals in metal to create contemporary jewellery. Bruce Metcalf is one the writers who wrote about contemporary jewellery. The topic of the essay that he wrote about is "on the nature of jewellery." On that essay he wrote about the functions of jewellery. He was reasoning about why people wear jewellery. Bruce metcalf says that people wear jewellery for three reasons. Those reasons are social status, portable wealth and spiritual meditation.
My approach to contemporary jewellery is making jewellery that connects
with my spirit. Roses or flowers connects with my spirit. Whenever I see roses or flowers I feel happy, they enhances my mood. The function of jewellery that I use for my jewellery is spiritual meditation.
According to Bruce Metcalf, jewellery has been associated with the spiritual and
supernatural.
