Artists, Gil and Irena Tsafrir, have used their respective skills to create a beautifully varied and diverse line of jewelry. Their line, which is available in the Etsy store, zulasurfing, is full of unusual ideas — it is fun, bold line.
Good jewelry design is often about movement. The way earrings turn and flip. The way a necklace swings. That is not usually the case where rings are concerned, though.

Such nice work that reminds one of what good design can do to showcase beautiful materials and masterful metal work.
