“SUMMER SUNDAYS” ON MDI: POP-UP JEWELRY TRUNK SHOW AND PERSONAL APPEARANCE BY LYNNE EIDELMAN
New York City based fine jewelry designer and goldsmith LYNNE EIDELMAN, trained in small studio settings in wax carving, goldsmithing, ancient jewelry techniques and 3d modeling. Approachable and relaxed with elegant appeal, it’s the jewelry that easily becomes a part of you…..“the jewelry you want everyday.” Inspired by light, movement, shapes and colors, each piece strives to satisfy a list of questions… How will it lay? Sway? Will it catch the light? Flatter? Will it feel just right?
“SUMMER SUNDAYS” ON MDI: POP-UP JEWELRY TRUNK SHOW AND PERSONAL APPEARANCE BY RAY GRIFFITHS
Australian-born jeweler, RAY GRIFFITHS, has been creating exquisite jewelry for more than 30 years. The son of a shoemaker, Ray grew up spending weekends at his father’s workshop and developed a deep sensibility towards craftsmanship and an appreciation for handmade details. Fueled by a love of gemstones and jewelry from an early age, when he was just 15 Ray began an apprenticeship to jewelry masters and tiara makers at Dunklings Jewellers in Melbourne, Australia. It was there that he learned the art behind the construction and restoration of fine jewels — which was to form the basis and ongoing motif in all of his own designs and production.

“SUMMER SUNDAYS” ON MDI: POP-UP JEWELRY TRUNK SHOW AND PERSONAL APPEARANCE BY STEVE FORD OF FORD FORLANO
Throughout their collaboration, STEVEN FORD and DAVID FORLANO of FORD FORLANO have often looked to nature for inspiration. In seed clusters, shell formations and flower buds, for instance, numerous carefully organized parts, seemingly identical, but really unique, are arranged beautifully. These exquisite structures led them into new ways of envisioning necklaces, for example, both three-dimensionally and texturally.
“SUMMER SUNDAYS” ON MDI: POP-UP JEWELRY TRUNK SHOW AND PERSONAL APPEARANCE BY PETER SCHMID/ATELIER ZOBEL
PETER SCHMID has been referred to as “The Stone Whisperer”. He may turn an individual stone into a brilliant star, or help it take its place in a dialogue with other unique stones, each of which enhances the allure of the other. Every stone and every piece has its own distinct story.
“SUMMER SUNDAYS” ON MDI: POP-UP JEWELRY TRUNK SHOW AND PERSONAL APPEARANCE BY ALISHAN
Alishan Halebian is one of the most original artists creating and pursuing his own vision in jewelry. Being a self-taught goldsmith, his treatment of precious metals is masterly. Using sophisticated techniques, he creates seemingly weightless pieces, capturing metallic beauty in a luxe look with textures set to thrill and inspire.

Creating one-of-a-kind and limited edition jewelry, GEOFFREY GILES work primarily in 18K gold, fabricating each piece himself with no outside help of any kind. His jewelry exemplifies a minimal industrial aesthetic; a combination of bold geometric forms, clean lines, and attention to surface detail.

J. MCVEIGH JEWELRY “SUMMER SUNDAYS” ON MDI: POP-UP JEWELRY TRUNK SHOW AND PERSONAL APPEARANCE BY SAM WOEHRMANN
With a lifelong intrigue of gemstones and an interest in mathematics, SAM WOEHRMANN was lured into the metal arts. Learning to both manipulate metal and work with stones has led his work into what it is today. Sam not only finds the amazing colors gems produce, but also the raw crystal structures intriguing. The use of this and different color combinations of metal alloys let’s him explore designs not only in shape, but in depths along another plane of vision. Being influenced by Earth’s creations and urban backdrops gives Sam’s work a strong geometric and industrial look.
Please join us on Sunday July 9th from 10am to 4pm for a J. McVeigh Jewelry trunk show with appearance by Sam Woehrmann,
J. MCVEIGH JEWELRY “SUMMER SUNDAYS” ON MDI: POP-UP JEWELRY TRUNK SHOW BY RACHEL ATHERLEY
Inspired by the beauty that the natural world provides, RACHEL ATHERLEY is constantly re-interpreting forms and patterns found in nature into Sterling Silver and Gold with hand selected gemstones. Natural shapes, patterns, and silhouettes combined with the strength and movement of metal allows her work to have a timeless sensibility through a modern perspective. Each piece is thoughtfully constructed in her Hudson Valley, New York studio.
Please join us on Sunday June 25th from 10am to 4pm for a J. McVeigh Jewelry trunk show with Rachel Atherley.
