My name is Daria Kuvshinova, and my jewellery is inspired by the
intricate patterns found in nature. With a background in media and programming, I bring a unique perspective to jewelry making.
Drawing inspiration from the randomness of nature, 90s nostalgia, and post-internet culture, my work questions if intentional design can mirror nature's creativity. This exploration of the synergy between natural elements and human inventions results in truly unique pieces that invite viewers to ponder the essence of creation.
As a self-taught caster and enameller, I handcraft each piece in my studio, ensuring full creative control. My process combines modern 3D modeling and printing with ancient casting techniques, incorporating real objects from nature. This method yields unpredictable results, prompting the question: Can these creations be compared to nature's own? Can I, as an artist, be likened to nature as a creator?

You can turn everything into silver, with my help! I'm
taking you on a buzzing journey into the world of organic
casting, where we'll craft a unique piece of jewelry
featuring a real bee. 🐝 Just take a look at this stunning
piece! It all starts with an idea, just like the one you might
have in mind. Whether it's a pendant, a ring, or something
truly out of the ordinary, I'm here to bring your vision to
life. 🐝 I carefully sourced an ethically harvested bee
specimen, ensuring that no harm is done to these amazing
creatures. 🐝 Preserving the bee is a delicate process. I encase
it in a mold, making sure every detail is captured, preserving
its intricate beauty forever. Then it’s where the magic happens.
I melt the metal and pour it directly into the mold, embracing
the bee's form, and turning it into a wearable work of art.
🐝 After cooling and careful finishing, I have your unique bee
jewelry, brimming with the essence of nature and craftsmanship.
🐝 Notice the remarkable textures and details that only organic
casting can create. Every piece is a tribute to the natural
world, and it's as exceptional as the bee itself. 🐝 I
personally hand-finish each piece, ensuring it meets my high
standards of craftsmanship. I believe in quality over quantity,
and that's what sets my work apart. ✨ But the best part?
Seeing the joy on your face when you receive your custom bee
jewelry. It's not just jewelry; it's a connection to
nature and a symbol of the beauty that surrounds us. ✨ So, are
you ready to own a piece of nature's wonder? Just drop me a
DM, and we'll start crafting your unique bee jewelry
together. Whether it's for a special occasion or just to
celebrate life's beauty, let's make it memorable. ✨
Keep shining, keep smiling, and keep connecting with the world
around you!
