The Helsinki Series in Coral- Modern Geometric Necklace or Bracelet
"ISWAS+WILLBE is a design collective owned and operated by husband/wife team Rex + Telle Lefler. We design intentional modern jewelry with an emphasis on hand cut raw brass, rare + ethically sourced materials and high-quality finishes.
Inspired by concepts of antiquity, modernity and infinity, ISWAS+WILLBE designs are timeless and glamorous, yet affordable and versatile. We are inspired by the journeys of life; our jewelry designs are the tangible narratives of our experiences.
OUR MATERIALS
We make a conscious effort to use ethically sourced, re-claimed vintage and new old stock materials. All of our jewelry is produced in-house and uses a combination of American-, European-, and otherwise ethically made finishes including Irish waxed linen, German silk, Czech seed beads, and a mixture of Italian and Indonesian precious metals. All of our metals are lead- and nickel-free."

The Lost Treasure
"My name is Csilla.By nationality I am Hungarian but I moved to a little town,Rushden in Great Britain.My little family and I have been living here about a year and we really like it.
I started making jewellery years ago and then stopped for a few years.I recently picked up again as I really enjoy it.My lastest jewellery is much more creativ than I used to make, I think that comes with age :)) I get my inspiration from anything from nature to media.I like using different materials as I feel it adds depth to my creations.I enjoy making statement jewellery that is diverse and individual, like the person who wears it.
My jewels are made of good quality Miyuki Delica, Toho Seed Beads, Czech Firepolished Beads and Swarovski Elements and I often use shells, stones, leathers and different kind of materials.
Many thanks for taking an interest in my jewellery!"
