What Inspires Me


I love to look at the photos coming from the
Hubble and Chandra Space Telescopes.
So beautiful it's hard to believe the infinite beauty in this unknown..

I'm trying to capture the Universe.

I Guess I DO Make Mens Jewelry.















I have been busy, busy making jewelry for the guys from the Nice Collective for their Time Machine collection. It's different than my usual style, but I'm really excited about their vision! The order that I'm working on now is going the Barneys in NYC!! Pretty cool, even though my name isn't on it.

I guess I do men's jewelry now....

I now accept PayPal

I've added new items and now accept PayPal!

I've been working in my studio all week. I'm making new Circuit Board pieces as well as Button Rings. I've been trying to smooth out the wrinkles in the site. Slowly it's coming along. Please let me know if you have questions or suggestions.

"Heavenly" is now in production! At long last. I've been sitting on my ideas for a year now, and have finally begun to realize them. Of course a new line doesn't happen overnight.....

Back to the bench!

Here's my Bio.....

Bethany Clark is a jewelry designer based in San Francisco, California. From an early age, she has always had her hand in making jewelry for herself and for friends. In 2000, she took this long time passion to heart and began to seriously focus on designing and producing her own line of jewelry. By 2002 she had founded Texture, her jewelry company. Around this same time, she also became the production manager for designer Marcie White at her San Francisco jewelry studio and shop, Picky.

Bethany's approach to Texture is a reflection of her own fashion aesthetic, what she describes as “gaudy self-adornment.” Her early designs were reflections of her love of classic Hollywood glamour and Cartier extravagance. Intricate chokers and lavish necklaces bound together by her obsession with symmetry defined these pieces. As her production techniques advanced, she began to search beyond the traditional repertoire of materials for inspiration.

On a trip to Japan, she came upon Japanese-designed geisha stickers and, together with her new-found love for plastics, she found a new direction for her designs. Found objects. Anything from computer circuit boards to images from airline safety manuals, became the centerpieces of her designs. Her capsule series focused on medicinal gel-caps filled with a variety of objects and powders, then dipped in resin, and clustered together to make charming pieces . Antique buttons found in her mother's sewing box were the focus for a collection of rings. Bethany has the unique ability to turn ordinary objects into extraordinary creations. Stay tuned for her current line of production, “Heavenly,” which will push this concept into an even grander realm.
