Fine Foods

Locally harvested produce! Fresh baked loaves! Hot pizza! Table treats! Common provisions made with uncommon gemstones, Fine Foods is a body of work by Caitlin Mociun that challenges the ideology of modern fine jewelry — that it has to be serious, boring, or saved for special occasions — through an exploration of gastronomical miniatures. Comprised of wearable food charms from five distinct collections, each one offers a point of connection, evoking a shared memory or personal experience. One charm can take several months to produce from start to finish. Most designs begin with a mold handmade by Caitlin, and creation can include sourcing and carving stones, and high-end, time-consuming processes such as enameling and pavé.
