Debbie Tuch [1996, Jewelry + Metalsmithing]

Since 1996, Debbie has designed and cultivated a world of jewelry that showcases beauty in the food we eat. It began with a slice of lime and some glittery resin, while creating opal like elements for fine jewelry in her studio. Debbie’s passion for food and culture fuels her designs as she creates pieces from real food that connects with people in their own personal way. Using many layers of resin, she preserves fruit slices, candy, snacks, and colorful sprinkles to create elements for my pieces. Using traditional jewelry techniques, Debbie sands and sculpts the pieces to create wearable art.
