Rebecka Boyd Jewelry Design : Sterling Silver, Semi-Precious Stones
Description
Ever since childhood Rebecka has been fascinated with art and jewelry – the color, texture, beauty and the comfort they can bring. From playing dress-up in her grandmother's clothes and jewels to making her own jewelry to wear to high school Rebecka has always been inspired by the shapes, designs and colors of nature.
Her desire to create urged her to take a metalsmithing class in college, where she made her first cast sterling silver ring. During a month long art study in Scotland; a shop owner complimented Rebecka on her ring. He expressed interest in selling her design in his store and she was thrilled that her talent was recognized and even more so that it may be marketable. This is when the idea was tucked away in her mind for future endeavors.
After graduating with a B.F.A from Longwood University in Graphic Design Rebecka moved to Richmond to start her career as a graphic designer but continued to pursue her passion of designing jewelry as a hobby. “I went to local bead store and fell in love with the various colors and cuts of stones and glass beads. They looked like candy... so yummy! That’s when I started making jewelry for family and friends.” She started making designs with recycled glass beads that were made from coke bottles in Africa. Working with the crude and primitive qualities of the beads intrigued her.
