Although Abigail Connell uses a variety of disparate materials, her winning collection of pendants, bracelets and earrings is well executed and quite lovely. Her website boasts nine different collections – each one a cohesive body of work that stands out on its own. Connell seems to have an innate ability to strike just the right combination of materials from a growing list that includes sterling silver, 23 karat gold leaf, freshwater pearls, polymer clay, resin, dirt, flower petals and stamens, grass, rubber, bronze, steel, copper, plastic and rubies.

I couldn’t find much about the artist online – many thanks to Tali Salvador for the link to Connell’s work.
