Handcrafted Designer Jewelry
The combination of textures and colors found in nature and architectural structures make Lynda Bahr's work unique. Two techniques are the basis for the mosaic patterns. They are Mokume Gane and roller printing. Mokume Gane involves forming a multilayered billet of colored gold, silver and shakudo. The billet is carved and reduced in a rolling mill until the desired pattern is achieved.

Lynda received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Syracuse University in 1977 and pursued further studies at Hornsey College of Art in London, England. Upon graduation, she spent fifteen years in San Francisco working as an interior architect on large scale corporate work before pursuing jewelry design. She moved to a rural coastal town 45 miles south of San Francisco and started classes with a local silversmith. Much time and effort has been put into self education and learning new techniques.
