Wooden jewelry has been an ongoing accessory trend for years, and doesn’t appear to be dying down anytime soon. So why not purchase a piece that is modern, sleek, and beautifully crafted by hand? Gustav Reyes, trained in fine craft woodworking provides all that and more. He creates jewelry that serve as engaging works of art rather than just another trendy accessory. Reyes takes a philosophical approach to his act of creation, and using cycles of life as inspiration. His work is made from salvaged repurposed wood in order to preserve nature’s beauty, resulting in a variety of rich woods. Head on over to his website here to pick out a updated, sculptural piece, and leave the basic wooden bangle at home.
