About

A nest is a promise to hold and to cherish. A bird builds a nest to protect and raise its young, the perfect refuge and, later, launching pad. Some nests are also built to woo and wow a potential partner, and rival our own feats of architecture. For instance, male weaver birds prepare complex hanging structures of plant fibers that are suspended from trees. These spectacular aerial abodes are nothing short of futuristic, and seem to defy our laws of physics. The bird who can build a nest with the most wow-factor is often quite attractive to a female weaver bird considering her options. Form follows function, however: it turns out the woven nest is perfectly-suited to harbor a weaver bird’s family.

The Delicate Nest Diamond Engagement Ring in sterling silver securely cradles its precious cargo, a sparkling diamond.

Artist

When Michele Scholnick was a kid, she may have dreamt of being a ballerina, but jewelry designer didn’t cross her mind ’til some years later. She had passed a major deadline in her political science grad program, and decided on a whim to take some art classes. She tried glassblowing, graphic design, and jewelry. Somehow, even though she didn’t wear much jewelry at the time, Michele got hooked in two weeks.

Michele designs and creates her fabulous pieces in her studio in Venice, California. Within a two-minute walk from her studio, she can find any three of her current favorite meals: sushi, Argentinian tapas, or freshly-made, cinnamon-sugar-dusted mini-donuts. In her spare time, Michele likes to dance salsa, read fiction, and walk her dog, June, on the beach.
