I originally wanted to share this entire book with you all, it serves as visual inspiration and has sparked off so many different design choices and looks for me. With inspiration from original pieces of tribal and ethnic jewelry brings my mind to wonder and almost day dream of these fantastic Artisans working out their concepts design choices and components, that were usually native to their environment creating an original look from their surrounding found and crafted objects.
However the process of scanning the pages is daunting and just hard to say the least. But there is such amazing amount of visual inspiration, that I am all giddy about sharing it, for those of you who can be inspired as I am by visual stimulation... and this is top notch visual stimulation.
So I need some encouraging words from you, if you are interested in seeing and being inspired by these works of art then please say so. Let me know that this is something I need to share with all of you, and you would come back to read it to be inspired as i have been. This will encourage me to continue scanning each page... one by one, if I know that others are benefiting from this it will inspire me to share more and not simply forget about it!
So come on let me know, I will however clean up the scanned pic's and make them as presentable as possible, as not to distort the pic's and text. I also will leave the files really large so you can click to enlarge and read. All this takes so much of my time, but if I do it as I am creating it becomes less of a taks and become more of an inspiration boost! Yea or Nea, either way leave me a comment and subscribe, if you don't want to miss a page!
