about the artist........
Born in 1962. Simon was raised and educated in London, England. From The age of five until twenty-one he studied classical piano and art. After moving to Los Angeles in 1982, the music of Beethoven and Chopin was replaced by the Detroit sound. After four years of singing lead in an R&B band and playing the various clubs of Los Angeles. Simon was eventually signed by Motown Records to record an album. After a few years of incessant toil, the glamor of the music business lost it's luster. A change was needed. His experience in sculpture was called upon and became the foundation of his metallic creative expression. For the past dozen years, Simon has worked steadily to perfect the craft of Silver design. To create a work of function, of beauty. of value.
about the work.........
Sterling silver possesses all the fire and beauty of the earth. It is at it's most lustrous in designed work, when the surface of the metal is allowed to flow....unhampered by decorative and ornate attention. All the bracelets and watches in the collection express the simplicity of pure Sterling silver. The bracelet is a reflection of fluid motion, A solid silver ingot laying on the wrist. Attention s paid to the individual flexibility of each link, of that each piece is most comfortable to wear. A specially designed clasp allows for approximately three quarters of an inch adjustably, providing a fit for most.
It is necessary not just to wear a bracelet......but to wear it beautifully.
Simon no longer make these beautiful pieces of jewelry as he is now into a whole new level of commerce. You can see the story here. Therefore these few pieces I have left will increase in value over time.
