RyanEure

My name is Ryan Eure. I am a precious metal wire wrap and fine jewelry artist. I use the finest argentium silver, 14 karat yellow gold filled, and 14 karat gold wire to weave, wrap and tie wearable works of art. I also study modeling, casting and stone setting. I use only natural cut and uncut gemstones. I have been creating art my whole life and started off as a ceramics artist. I have won awards as a high school student in the medium of ceramics and continued my education studying sculpture at Appalachian State University. I later traveled to Gunnison, Colorado where I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Western State Colorado University. I have my bachelors of fine arts in studio ceramics. Though I studied sculpture and ceramics I have always had a love for jewelry. Along with a fascination in gems and minerals, jewelry making has been a medium I have always kept up with along side of ceramics. As I graduated from college and moved back home to Virginia I have been taking the jewelry side of things more seriously. I now create jewelry almost daily. Making art is more than a hobby, and the creative process is a natural part of me. I do it for the love, the need, and the passion for creating.
My images show a diverse collection of the jewelry I make. My designs are inspired by mixing aspects of native cultures and ancient civilizations, while also hinting post modern and art deco qualities. My goal is to mix the old with the new. I carry a full line from bracelets, rings, and pendants to earrings, broaches and chains. Some pieces include gems and minerals, while other pieces are simply made from the beauty of wire weaving. I believe each piece is meant for an individual wearer. Using birthstones and custom gems have been a part of that process of finding the perfect piece for that certain person. I welcome custom design and gemstone orders to not only accompany size and perfect fit, but to also make a piece that is more personal. Wearing stones that are personal to an individual makes for a more intimate experience with the piece that they are wearing. My goal is to create unique jewelry that humbly catches eyes, and sparks subtle conversation. My hopes are to give each one of my customers a truly energetic and fulfilling experience as they wear a piece of my jewelry.
