Sophie Monet has created a series of contemporary wood jewellery made through a sculptural thought process instilled with the ambience of the natural environment as a material influence. Each piece is hand shaped using exotic wood, precious stones, and gold leaf from around the world. These materials are especially unique and rare, making each piece one of a kind.
Sophie’s jewellery is a synthesis of her life. The wood represents Los Angeles and what she was surrounded by growing up. Whether it be palm trees that line the streets from Venice to Santa Monica or her personal close family bonds, and the wood shop she spent her childhood in. The gold and stone represents an entry into independence in New York. The urban mountains continue to be a source of her inspiration, shaping the growth of knowledge. Together these elements make up Sophie Monet Jewellery, synthesize and sculpt the materials that surround her, bringing natural elements into different contexts.
