Making jewellery is personal,
there is an incarnation
a rendering from the invisible to the visible
it is a spiritual transaction
Does this make it precious ?
Robert Baines

Créer un bijou est un acte personnel,
Il y a dans cette action une incarnation
Une transfiguration de l’invisible au visible
Il s’agit d’une opération spirituelle.
Est-ce que cela suffit à rendre le bijou « précieux » ?
Robert Baines
