The goal with this project was to achieve harmony between two different materials: brass and Glass. Rather than the rare or expensive materials often used to create fine jewelry, these elements are more commonplace materials in the modern world. Therefore this work relies on design and the harmony between these materials to create pieces that exist between the definitions of fine and fashion jewelry.

Jimin Jung was born in 1990 in the Republic of Korea. He has studied crafts and industrial design in Philadelphia. He began his exploration of jewelry at university. His design practice is informed by modernism and minimalism and driven by material exploration.
