We recently had the pleasure of hosting Bangkok-based artist Virginia Sprague in the gallery while she was in Melbourne. While here, Virginia gave an artist talk to the e.g.etal team ahead of the launch of her first collection with the gallery.
Virginia sees people as part of the making process, with the pieces changing over time as they go through life with their wearer. Soft, frosted textures in silver and gold are intended to evolve, with raised surfaces polishing with everyday wear, allowing each piece to develop its own unique character.
Rather than making large gemstones the highlight of the design, Virginia prefers to let the beauty of the metal speak for itself, occasionally adding a small touch of colour.
Virginia Sprague is the latest artist to join e.g.etal’s line-up of talented jewellers. Discover more of her work in the gallery, or online at the link in bio.
