Christina Jarmolinski's Jewelry in Pulse Magazine

In 2011 Pulse Magazine of Naples Florida featured my jewelry. The theme was Punk Art. It was the first time I was challenged to make Punk Art jewelry so I custom designed pieces for this event. I included corals to enhance the drama of the photo-shoot.

Lapis Lazuli

"Lapis lazuli has been popular through most of recorded human history. Mining for lapis occurred in the Badakhshan Province of northeastern Afghanistan as early as 7000 BC. The lapis was used to make beads, small jewelry items and small sculptures. These have been found at neolithic archeological sites dating back to about 3000 BC in Iraq, Pakistan, and Afghanistan."
Vincent van Gogh, Vermeer, Titian and many other painters painted the robe of Mary in lapis blue - ultramarine pigments, lapis ground for these purposes.

Malachite

"Malachite has been used as a gemstone and sculptural material for thousands of years and is still popular today. Today it is most often cut into cabochons or beads for jewelry use."
