Seoyoung Lee [2004, Jewelry + Metalsmithing]

After gaining experience at a custom jewelry store, I set out to create my own pieces infused with vintage aesthetics and inspired by nature’s enduring allure. My jewelry celebrates the interplay between matte subtlety and polished sophistication, inviting viewers to examine its details closely. Each piece exudes a natural elegance, mirroring the organic beauty of our world. Drawing from the graceful forms of leaves, flowers, and vines, as well as antique motifs like scrolls and beaded textures, I seek to capture the essence of nature’s grace. My work carries unique gemstones, echoes of antiquity, evoking a nostalgic charm in 14k gold.
