Douglas Zaruba Espa ol Douglas Zaruba is known for his fresh, contemporary interpretation of classical design. Reflected in the clean, modern lines of his jewelry are the balance, proportion, and textures of ancient civilizations. While training as a painter and sculptor, Douglas Zaruba became interested in the concept of jewelry as wearable sculpture.
Jewelry is three-dimensional sculpture as well as kinetic sculpture.
It is site-specific sculpture in that it must fit in harmony with the human form. Jewelry originated as a symbol of power and is an intimate repository of ideals and values. In the work that I present to you, I have tried to discover the timeless essence of their designs to create objects that, when worn on the body, harmonize with the voice within us. I will continue to strive to achieve a level of craftsmanship that past and future artisans will respect. Click on any ring below for detailed information.
