Why it belongs in ORBIS
Byron Ushiña’s Quito studio makes sculptural high jewellery, treating each piece as a work of art.
Byron Ushiña’s pieces are made in 18-karat gold and 950 silver. Some designs are drawn from the Galápagos Islands, among them a pendant in the shape of a blue-footed booby. The catalogue runs from earrings and necklaces to engagement rings, so say which kind of piece you want when you first make contact.
