Frank Gehry Jewelry Collection for Tiffany

I was shopping around for Mother's Day presents when I took at a gander at the jewelry collection that famed architect Frank Gehry did for legendary luxury retailer Tiffany & Co. Like Gehry's architectural works, the jewelry echoes organic forms rendered in unusual materials, and on a smaller scale his shapes are sensual and elegant, especially the Fish collection of necklaces (as seen below). I love the use of black gold, woods and resins with the soft, sculptural shapes, and the effect is both subdued yet unusual -- the anti-bling, so to speak.
