Valerie Tyler, designer behind aptly named Valerie Tyler Designs creates jewelry lines that include hand-sawn
sleek and simple geometric designs to more intricate wire-wrapped scrolls and swirls.

Feminine shapes and delicate details are combined in this years’ jewelry, with some more playful industrial elements,
allusions to nature, and an exploration of play with the basic shapes.
