Gemstones & Pearls
The Quartz Suite


Artist: Karen McKeown (Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland)
Honorable Mention, Gemstones & Pearls

Karen created this bridal tiara based on the conviction that "brides need something different from just crystals" to wear on their special days. The variously-shaped opal "quartz" beads playfully rising from this tiara’s frame will provide some lucky lady with just such a difference. Of the final piece, Karen declared that her very sore hands were worth it.
