Her many jewellery collections over her career have taken some very different forms, stemming from ideas, ethics and heuristics. Some fashion lead, some materials lead and some process lead. Each of her collections in the last decade have been explorations of process in a long term project about sustainable working practices : Learning a jewellery technology, often, an ancient technology with a low carbon footprint, using recycled or found precious materials, then designing and making collections of jewels that incorporate these.

    Judi Powers

    A thousand facets seats with Judi Powers and they discuss her beginnings in the publishing world and how jewelry became her second act and inspiring her to continue discovering herself as a creative individual! Hope you enjoy this great conversation. About: My inspiration is all around us. The graceful undulation of a ripple in a pond. The curve of a leaf as it reaches for the sun. The branching silhouette of a dendritic agate. The delicate colors of the first blooms of Spring. To take the hardness of gems and metal and make them soft, I’ve spent hours at the workbench, carving, filing, buffing and refining the surface until I’ve achieved my signature Cashmere Finish.® I want everything I create to have the timeless elegance of a cashmere sweater, which inspires the soft texture of my metals. The matte gold gathers and disperses light until it seems like you can feel it glowing through your fingertips. In a world where we interact through images and screens, I want my jewelry to make you want to reach out to hold it. Sense the gold warming in your hands. Run your fingers over the soft finish. Marvel at the beautiful forms and subtle shading of the gems and minerals. Experience the intimate luxury of a beautiful object, crafted by hand, designed to last. That’s why after a career in publishing I fell in love with the joy, meaning and purpose of the art of jewelry. Enjoying the quiet concentration of working with my hands, carving wax and shaping metal. Contemplating the beauty of gems and finding inspiration. Embodying the joy and meaning of the special moments of your life in every design. Finding purpose in creating work that instantly becomes part of you, carrying with it the pleasure of its making, from my hands to yours.
