A rusted washer, beach
glass, a discarded
tooth and the lid from
an old tin can are
unlikely objects of
adornment.

But a unique exhibit of
one-of-a-kind jewelry art has
put these reeveled treasures
on display.

“Found” objects are the
common thread that weaves
together the work of eight
jewelry designers in the show
Salvage, currently at- the
Crafthouse = Gallery on
Granville Island.

Bones, glass, machine
parts, leaves, fossils, frag-
ments of letters and photos
find their rightful place
alongside precious metals and
gems.

The show is coordinated
by former North Van resident

“Conceptually
the show examines
the remains of our
lives that have been
broken, lost or for-
gotten, then recov-
ered) and trans-
formed: salvaged.”

Dolman, Eric Montgomery,

the North Shore, has con-

tributed a number of pieces
to the show, among them: a
brooch crafted from. steel,
sterling silver, amber, horn
and garnet; a mabé pearl ring
in steel, sterling silver and
