Christopher M. Stephens - Retro
The pieces in this section are not replicas or reproductions. They were inspired by my love of European and American antique and estate jewelry from the late nineteenth century through the 1930's. This includes Victorian, Edwardian, Bel Epoch, Art Nouveau and Art Deco styles. While the techniques I employ may differ from those of my predecessors, many of the materials used are the same. The connection, the continuity however, lies in design and the integrity of craftsmanship.
