Ruth Berridge
She was a New York city modernist jewelry designer and was known for her work in silver. Ruth born in 1921 and was one of the premiere modernist jewelry designers in the 1950s. Her designs were produced for quite some time. She is most known for her modernist type work in silver yet did produce some pieces in gold. Her original sketches as well as jewelry is quite very rare today and hard to find.
Note: The following is an excerpt from an ad in the NEW YORKER, dated May 17th, 1952: “Excitingly different, these animated earrings are pure pleasure to wear. Light as a fairy’s touch, they lend an air of strange enchantment to the scene.” Ruth Berridges’ sometimes abstract expressionist, sometimes cubist designs rival the work of the best modernist artists. Perhaps her signature look can be considered the silver mobile jewelry, especially earrings that sway with the wearer’s movement. Handmade of sterling silver and spring wire, the delicately balanced mobiles were called modern sculpture in miniature and made with and without rhinestone or crystal accents. Ruth originated this design that was sold through Neiman Marcus as well as by such avant-garde shops as Design Research in New York; The Upper Story in Cambridge; and Nany's in San Francisco. Her mobile jewelry was once described as “eye-catching adornments which float in the air even when the wearer’s head is still and seem to have a life of their own.” Ruth herself said of her mobile earrings, “they behave like a flock of birds.".

About Monica Coscioni
My name is Monica. I live and work in Orvieto, where I was born. From the beauty of the places that surround me I draw the destination for art and creativity.

I have been creating jewels for over thirty years but I keep the traits of a little girl alive: I play, invent, create, amaze.
