Gemstone artist to display work at Art After Dark

Written by 

The Jeweler’s Workbench in Waynesville will present the wire-wrapping art of Nadine Fidelman as its featured artist for Art After Dark on Friday, Aug. 6.

Nadine searches out the best gemstones, pearls, fossils and dichroic glass from the world’s top suppliers to use in her one-of-a-kind pendants and earrings. She “wraps” each one, surrounding it with a minimal amount of wire, to enhance its beauty. She uses her fingertips, fingernails and various pliers to surround each one. She often adds gemstone beads or pearls to create a unique piece of art jewelry.

Fidelman is the newest member of the group of local artists represented at The Jeweler’s Workbench, located at 80 North Main Street.

    It is said that humans are fickle creatures, and if that is true, then the weather must be at least part human. For as of late, it never seems to cooperate.
