SIEDENGANG

Seidengang is a highly unique 18k gold jewelry company. Carolyn Gang is the proprietor and artist behind the brand name. Her work resembles that of Gurhan in that she also uses a hammer technique, and also leaves imperfections in her work. She uses bold jewels and ancient coins, and cleverly places them in her gold. She will also sometimes "sprinkle" a gold surface with diamonds of different cuts.

Her work has a wonderfully warm and handmade feel to it. Her inspiration comes from Greek and Roman mythological plaster bas-reliefs, that she sometimes even physically uses to make her jewelry. Her work is very dramatic, and certainly sets a colorful stage for any woman. She likes to adorn her gold with sprawling reliefs o birds, flowers, butterflies and leaves, or in concentric carefully worked abstract designs.

She is a designer who knows who she deigns for, and boldly goes forth and creates lovely big whimsical jewelry for women who are not afraid of anything, and certainly not afraid of themselves.
