Born and raised in Taiwan, Liaung Chung Yen’s contemporary jewelry is heavily influenced by Chinese culture and art. Similar to Chinese painting, he views his work as an expression of the mind. His unique Water Lily Studs are handmade from white finished Sterling Silver and flourishing bud-like elements created from two domed circles of 22 Karat Gold Bimetal soldered together. The bud-like elements, which are are loosely connected to the surface with 18 Karat Gold beaded wire, gently move with the wearer. The inventive earrings are 1.0” x 0.75” x 0.25” and have Sterling Silver posts and nuts.
