Organising a bunch of gems of various colors, hues and shapes together into an interesting and unique palette is for me, very often a result of serendipidity. The process is almost like searching for and capturing the perfect moment - a surprise of colors juxtaposed yet in harmony.
I believe that a jewelry artisan works very much the same way an oil painter approaches his paints. Bearing the principles of the color theory in our minds, every discovery of a unique palette is at once heartstopping and breathtaking. It is a perfect moment, and a gift.
