I strive to make art accessible to everyone by exploring the structural similarity of biological cells and celestial bodies through sculptural jewelry. My work magnifies these forms, which repeat themselves in all aspects of our world, from architecture to anthropology.

Inspired by classic jewelry, I create timeless pieces that are subtly different. The end result is jewelry that is casually elegant – easy to wear by anyone at anytime. It’s important for me to employ sustainable practices by using recycled metals, natural conflict-free gemstones, and making everything locally in Chicago.

The forging process I use recalls the ancient tradition of metalworking, continuing the history of adornment for generations to come...

Because I makes each piece by hand, requests for custom pieces are welcomed. If you are interested in carrying my work in your store or starting a collection, please contact info@rebeccazemans.com.
