Handcrafted Designer Jewelry
Through a miniaturization process that retains every detail in each image, artists Dawn Estrin and George Wilson first decide on a shape in which to frame it, and then incorporate additional design elements. Their designs are influenced by their love of decorative arts from the European Renaissance, Baroque and Neo-Classical periods, as well as American Art Deco and the architecture of the Middle East.

Bijou Graphique was started in 1995. Since that time, designers Estrin and Wilson have combined forces to create a unique vision of what jewelry can be. The artists have lived and worked together for twenty years, both exploring many mediums and materials. Their work together reflects a common interest in themes such as art, romance, and humor. "We create settings and images that celebrate nature, animals, and man's relationship to them as well as the history of decorative arts."
