This may be a bad feminism take but....

I think part of the reason it's so common that people harp on about lab-grown diamonds for jewelry and how unethical blood diamonds are is (at least subconsciously) because it's women recieving the diamonds, even if they don't buy them. It's women asking for diamonds and oftentimes women defending "blood diamonds", and women who are judged for wanting mined diamonds. And I wonder if the backlash against this rather than other issues might be due to the fact that the consumer is mainly women, and women are often socially discouraged from being selfish or greedy, while no similar pressure is applied to men on a wider basis. Because God forbid a woman want a status symbol, or to feel powerful and important, or just to exercise her will over others the same way men do without (as much) judgement. I don't think blood diamonds are ethical and I'm not arguing that they are, but I think of all the wrongs in our supply chain, this is one people get disproportionately hung up on.

The Industry

December, 2014 Sterling Silver, Cubic Zirconias, Quartz The ring is 5cm tall. The big stone is: 3.1cm x 2.1cm x 5cm (HxWxD)

Some more old work.

This ring was part of a series of work where I made fun of the modern commercial jewelry aesthetic. The idea came from working within the jewelry industry for a time, and becoming acutely aware of just how gaudy and ugly a lot of rings were. The stones were incredibly important for those rings, and more often than not designs would be based around shoehorning the biggest rock they could into a particular ring. So, I decided to take this idea to its next logical extreme by setting a comically large stone on top of a massive band.

Here’s a snippet from the original artist statement:

It is an aberrant abomination which I hesitate to call a ring. It is an absurd joke befitting the mockery that I consider contemporary jewelry to be. It represents all the contempt which I hold towards the gem encrusted standard created by the likes of companies who care more about their bottom line than creativity. It is the next logical progression to the ungodly "centerpiece" gems which are so often the focal point of their jewelry items. It is absurd, it is comical, and it is how I view such jewelry.

pls cross your fingers and toes, light a candle or pray for me

because i sent an email to a small company for a jeweler job (at the beginning of school, i drove by there and told my partner that i would love to work for them someday if i ever could 🥹)
