Linda Friedrich Jewelry

Linda entered the world of jewelry already in China and continued to study with several Silver- & Goldsmiths in Israel.
By now Linda lives and works in Tel Aviv.About her work:Linda's jewelry is a balanced result of my awareness & attention to my natural surrounding, which she believes everybody is influenced by. She loves to work with ideas or materials which she has just found on one of her strolls through nature.
Everything she picks up in her surrounding or even on her table is potential jewelry to her. Sometimes it’s the shape of an element which draws the attention, or it’s the nice structure of the surface. It can also be the combination of things lying accidentally next to each other on the ground just as it would have been arranged purposely. Natural elements which have been picked up just to decorate the studio, suddenly seem like a new piece of jewelry such as little rocks, bark and stones. For her current collection she was inspired mainly by the surface of tree bark and a little rock which reminded me to a huge raw piece of precious stone found in a mine.
