Nadine Zenobi designs fine, one of a kind jewelry in precious metals, and stones.

“The gift of creativity is intricately connected to the gift of healing. As an artist and a healer, I must synthesize the expression of both in my work and in my life.”

“ Through years of study and interest in the healing arts, I’ve come to appreciate and honor the ability of stones to heal the body, mind and spirit. From the combination of specific stones and the overlay and appliqué of precious metals, emerges a unique creation. The stones speak to me of placement within geometric and organic forms. The combining of the metals, silver, white, pink and yellow gold enhance the beauty and energy of each piece. The fabrication process enriches the uniqueness of the work, giving it a ‘hands on’ flavor from the concept to the final polish. The forms I use come directly from observation of the world around me, especially in the creation of a custom piece. I start by choosing the specific metal and then the stones to facilitate the healing process. Often a shape or image will come into the picture. Whatever it is that my intuition directs me to do, a creative synthesis unfolds. I am always honored to create a unique, intimate, healing piece for an individual .

Nadine has been creating jewelry since 1982 when she moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico. Her knowledge of jewelry design was augmented by a 1990 intensive study with the renowned Hopi silversmith, Michael Kabote-Lomawyesa, at the School of Music and Arts in Idyllwild, California.

An accomplished artist, Nadine received in 1974 a B.F.A., magna cum laude from Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore and has received numerous awards for her work. Extensive travel and study abroad added to her influences in a wide range of media, including painting, sculpting, weaving and silkscreen design.

Nadine has recently relocated her studio to Chapel Hill, NC after 14 years in California’s Bay Area. In addition to private collections, SKYRIVERS JEWELRY can be found in galleries and in select shops nationwide.
