Notice: Jewelry Call for Entries!

Here at Sheffield we are big fans of goal setting for accomplishment.  A great way to give yourself a little push is to decide to throw your hand in to a Call for Entry

Here are some good ones coming up!

CU|29: Contemporary Work in Copper:  Deadline 15 November 2011

Find application and details here!

This competion is all about featuring copper, our 29th element, as the dominent material for making jewelry pieces.  If selected, pieces will be feautred at the SNAG conference in Arizona.  So, go to it with the copper and create something gorgeous that utilizes copper's excellent malleability.

The Body Adorned:  Deadline 9 December 2011

Find application and details here!

This competion is sponsored by SNAG, the Society of North American Goldsmiths -- don't be fooled by the name, which has become outdated and has been in discussion for change for some time now-- most work that gets recognized here is very unconventional, often asking the question "what is jewelry?"  So go ahead and step up to the challenge and show your own answer!

A beautiful and delicate example of this king of work is Memento (shown Left) by Rebecca Barton.  To see more of her ephemeral and nature inspired work click here!  

 

This is the perfect competion for some of your out-of-the-box pieces! Let your imagination be your guide here and it will likely be rewarded!
