BKF Designs Art - Colorful and Modern

Barbara specializes in creating colorful enamels and cloisonné in sterling silver and mixed metal settings, sometimes including some gem stones to add balance or accent to the designs. Often the modern, free form style has an analytic base. Her jewelry continues to evolve and takes many forms. Her love of color, texture, shape and design radiates from her jewelry art pieces.

In addition to cloisonné pieces, there are inspired arrangements of gem stones in intricate silver or mixed metal settings, or with gem stones or lapidary stones (some self-cut and shaped) set in a series of simple settings. Some pieces with color and texture are made from dichroic glass. Some distinctive enamel pieces focus on depth, texture, and color with dramatic designed shapes. Some of these distinctive pieces include cloisonné with silver settings and accent gemstones. Some of the texture is from etched or milled patterns and riveted found items with a steam punk style.

If you are looking for a unique piece of jewelry for yourself, or as a gift for someone, consider jewelry created by BKF Designs of Commack, New York.
