Audrey Werner, Banded Sterling Silver and Agate Earrings, United States, 1998
Located in New York, NY
Audrey Werner has always been interested in the different ways people around the world, and throughout history, have adorned themselves. As a child, she would make jewelry from everything she could find—from beads to rocks, wire, and seeds.
