Jewelry
by
Yvonne Cupolo
Yvonne Cupolo is a
nationally known Jewelry Artist, and goldsmith, silversmith, and enamellist
.Pet portraits in cloisonné enamel are a specialty. Fine silver wires are
fused with glass and set in precious metals to create a wearable and durable
portrait of a beloved pet. Her work has been published in "Contemporary
Enameling" by Lilyan Bachrach ( Schiffer 2006 )and this year she won 1st
prize in jewelry at the prestigious Art Show at the Dog Show in Wichita ,
Kansas. Other exhibits include The Enamellist Society, Artisan Gallery in
NYC, "Objects" in Seattle, and The American Kennel Club Museum of the Dog in
St. Louis.
 We
are offering some of Yvonne's pins for sale on this page, but most of her
pieces are made by special commission. The photo of Harry (shown to the
right) was used to make the pin shown to the left. We think Yvonne did an
excellent job of capturing Harry’s likeness and spirit. Below the pins for
sale are examples of special commission pins that Yvonne has done.
Prices vary depending on size and materials used but tend to be in the
$300 to $500 range. Yvonne is happy to work in either sterling silver or 14K
gold. Any type of stone can be added at the customer’s discretion.
