Handcrafted Jewelry: Necklaces
The shape of Lisa Ceccorulli's jewelry takes the form of stepping stones that were used to make walkways through ancient Japanese gardens. The stones, as well as some of the plants, were arranged in groups of three, five, and seven. To imitate the texture of those stones, Ceccorulli hammers the metal against a rock and then sandblasts it. The fused appliques of 22K gold reflect her interpretation of the elements in a landscape.

Today, Buddhist temples still have gardens based on the 3-5-7 design. The numbers have many spiritual meanings, including balance and harmony, and are believed to be positive omens. Through this collection, Lisa Ceccorulli tries to express the feeling of contentment and completeness that a Japanese garden can provide.
