Eve Balashova creates striking statement jewellery using a combination of 3d printing and traditional hand skills.
Her work is designed with ease of wear in mind as all pieces are very light and durable. Eve’s approach to making is a celebration of colour – she dyes each piece carefully by hand to create smooth, seamless transitions. These subtle hues are complemented by handcrafted precious elements, which she creates using traditional metalworking skills – piercing, scoring and folding, soldering.
