The jewelry, in reality, is a compromise. In the heart of Leigh Miller there is sculpture, a road, however, too uncertain. Better, therefore, to create small sculptures, but which can be sold immediately.<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_92338\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-92338\" style=\"width: 709px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Anello-cavatappi.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Anello-cavatappi.jpg\" alt=\"Anello Corkscrew\" width=\"709\" height=\"537\" class=\"size-full wp-image-92338\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Anello-cavatappi.jpg 709w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Anello-cavatappi-300x227.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Anello-cavatappi-73x55.jpg 73w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Anello-cavatappi-400x303.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Anello-cavatappi-100x75.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-92338\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Anello Corkscrew<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\nFor her jewels she uses the lost wax casting technique, but with a personal style: she heats the wax, melts it and pours it on a surface, to obtain the shapes she wants. But she, she says, it is always up to the moon and the stars to decide how to melt the wax. She is also inspired by natural forms, such as a variety of marine stones. But without forgetting sculpture stars such as Jean Arp, Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore. The jewelry is made from partially recycled sterling silver.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_92339\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-92339\" style=\"width: 709px\" class=\"wp-caption
