It’s currently 33 degrees in the Berkshires, and with snow predicted in today’s forecast, it’s definitely still winter at Sienna Patti Gallery.
But those who set foot in the Lenox, Mass., space will be greeted with a glimpse of spring: Christopher Thompson Royds has brought his signature florals to the gallery for a special exhibition of his jewelry designs, including new pieces from two series, Natura Morta and Against Nature. Both are a celebration of flowers that straddle the lines between wild meadows and forest floors and the more cultivated terrains of cottage gardens.
“Christopher’s work is exquisitely made, very wearable, and nods to jewelry history without feeling dated,” says Patti, who has known the artist for years and first met him when he was still a student at the Royal College of Art. “It’s modern and a little edgy while maintaining a look that most people are drawn to and can see themselves wearing—a great fit for the gallery.
