6 opinions for Eni Oken’s amazing wire & gem jewelry

    Hi Cyndi, I like the way the spiral wrapping adds textural change to the main structural elements of the work. All too often I see wire wrap jewelry where the wire is a single unvarying line, whereas Eni adds life to them.

    Eni just keeps pushing the artform. My own wirewrapping is what you described…a single line…but hers is simply amazing!

    I simply adore the wire wrapping, colours and embellishments on the first necklace of Eni’s.
    I havn’t looked at her site for a long time and last week managed to finally do it. How wonderful would it be to do a class with her one on one?

    Oh you betcha! It’s on my list. Last summer, I managed to take a class with Nancy Eha, and my next goal is one with Eni :-)

    You lucky girl!!! This is one of the many times when I wish I didn’t live on the other side of the world…
