SHAME ONTO JEWELRY

Crafting a jewelry piece that blends unconventional materials with traditional methods. 
This drive to “fix” perceived imperfections often overshadows acceptance of natural diversity in human features. Uneven teeth, for example, are not a medical issue requiring correction, yet they are frequently seen as something to hide or change. My aim with this jewelry piece is to celebrate and embrace this natural trait, highlighting the beauty in what is often overlooked or criticized.
