Drawing inspiration from nature, Ayaka Nishi designs are fascinating and perhaps a bit bewitching. Take this rib and spine bracelet, for instance. It features components cast from actual bones and yet there’s an undeniable beauty to the unsettling piece.

Over the last week, I’ve been admiring the work of L.A.-based designer Karen Hsiang—especially her collection of sensual, sculptural rings. I’m torn between the lateral ring (above) and the crevice ring. (If you’re a reader of Gem Gossip, you already know that you can use code “GEM GOSSIP” to take 30% off your purchase through Thanksgiving.)
When I raved about LeeMo Designs’ lightweight statement earrings earlier this week, you’ll remember that I featured her acrylic lasercut work. Now I’m excited to highlight the real foundation of her collection: beautiful, meticulously crafted origami earrings. One lucky lady will even win a pair of her own! Enter below to add a pair of the Ayano diamond drop earrings to your jewelry box.
