H Stern is the deconstructionist of jewelry. He takes his inspiration from other artists. Architects, Dancers, Celtic Dunes, other designers, and so on. He then breaks down these things into their linear elements. If an artist were to take a brush, and do a contour drawing of anything, it would be a great example of the work h stern produces. He really plays with the basics of design unlike any other jeweler. He uses line and line width, and sees how far he can push the simplest of design elements.
Its fair to say that where other designers fall into extremes, his jewelry is a fine example of something in between. This makes his work compatible with almost anything. It is simple, brilliant, and elegant.
