Lois Hill Hammered Scroll Bracelet

Lois Hill looks to ancient civilizations from all around the globe for something that would inspire her creations. However, though her inspirations come from an old world aesthetic, she still manages to inject modern ideals into her designs. This combination of both modern and traditional styles, in the end, creates a look that is timeless. However, it’s not just the design that Lois Hill is famed for. Her focus on craftsmanship, intricate designs and her distinctive style truly makes her stand out from the rest. After seeing a piece from her line, one would immediately see the different things that influenced that certain piece. Whether it is a shape or a pattern that was prevalent in use back in ancient times or perhaps a more contemporary shape used in contrast with it, her influences and inspirations can clearly be seen. Lois began with a small team of 7 artisans while researching ancient techniques and now she is responsible for training hundreds of artisans world wide. With a clear vision of preserving lost arts and melding cultures and time, her quest takes her from the depths of the Amazon to the peaks of Bhutan and Tibet. It may be the weaving of a hut in Africa or the cultural and indigenous use of jewelry that serves as her next inspiration. Influences are often subtle and blended with other places and eras. When holding a piece of her jewelry, hopefully you will see and feel this cultural richness and global inspiration.

The Lois Hill jewelry inspiration is derived from a variety of things, all of which the designer is passionate about, exquisite art, adventure, ancient civilizations, culture as well as the need to design and create. The jewelry she creates is a wonderful mix of intricate shapes, pattern and cultural influences. Contemporary design is juxtaposed with ancient aesthetics thus creating a truly interesting feel. These things when combined make for a bold and artistic jewelry that embodies history and a kind of beauty that is truly timeless.
