Eva Martin wins 2nd place in Saul Bell Award


Congratulations to Eva Martin for winning 2nd place in Rio Grande's Saul Bell Awards with this stunning Argentium bangle.  Here are a few words from Eva...

"I was delighted to win my third Saul Bell Design Award http://www.saulbellaward.com/ with an Argentium Silver bangle which won second place in the silver category this year.

This design was born after my reading of the Large Hadron Collider and the race to find the 'God Particle' or Higgs Boson.  After weeks of research and scores of CAD drawings the Collider bangle emerged.

The bangle looks like two intertwined forms but it is actually one continuous channel with a single edge. Inside, synthetic ruby balls race around the channel and collide with each other."
