18k Alchemical Stud Earring Aqua Vitae

RIMA JEWELS is the cumulative work and ongoing explorations of contemporary studio jeweler Rocío Inès Marsyas' metal smithing practice that began nearly two decades ago as an apprentice to a fourth generation jeweler. The collections, limited edition pieces, and custom works marry an array of interests including the early history of alchemical practice, Roman antiquities and the richly textured history of vanitas paintings and their jewelry counterparts. Each collection and individual piece is meticulously crafted in Rocío Inès' Manhattan studio with the delicacy, care, and discerning design considerations true to the artist's imprimatur. Textures, contours, and the minutiae particular to the materials used are celebrated and never overworked in Ms. Rocío Marsyas' atelier. RIMA JEWELS brings you into the fold by hinting at process while signaling to a variety of histories and their contemporary relevance. RIMA JEWELS' objets d'art and fine jewelry truly embody and retain the treasured talismanic properties that connoisseurs and fetishists alike demand of their worldly possessions.
