Michael
Zobel
and business partner Peter
Schmid create flamboyant, dramatic precious jewelry that
combines wearable forms with a theatrical, larger - than - life
esthetic. This effect is created in part by the sculpture like
three-dimensionality of many of Zobel Studio's designs and the use
of unusual or unusually cut gemstones. To create the great variety
of patterns, textures and colors in his work, the patterned gold
surfaces are 24K and 18K gold, combined in a marriage-of-metal
technique. Often, sterling silver surfaces are patterned with
streaks of platinum and pure gold to create a checkerboard effect.
