Norwegian-born artist Liv Blåvarp crafts oversize, asymmetrical necklaces that invoke everything from sealife and entomology to Alice in Wonderland to architecture and drapery to vertebrae! Trained at London’s Royal College of Art, Blåvarp has exhibited her art across the world, creates truly unique and bold pieces for people who are serious about their jewelry. Along with wood, Blåvarp often incorporates ebony, ivory and whale teeth in her pieces. Her hand-dyed collars fuse ethnic and botanical influences, reminding us that the wood was once very much alive.
