More on Victoria Lansford



Victoria Lansford's emphasis lies not only with how her pieces look when worn, but more with how the person wearing them feels. The kind of filigree she does is Russian or openback filigree using 18ct or sterling silver frame wire and fine silver for filler wires. What sets her work apart from other commercial filigree, and what I want to emulate, is the intricate patterning of her filler wires. This part of the design evolves as she works.
