Her biography:
"Rachel Gera is considered one of Israel`s most dynamic artists in the field of three-dimensional design.

Born in Tel Aviv to Polish immigrants, Gera began producing art at an early age. She studied at Jersusalem`s Bezalel Academy of Art and was instrumental in launching the crafts movement in the Old City Jaffa.

Jewelry, for Gera, has always been a matter of artistic creation instead of fashionable adornment. She views her pieces as massive and personal sculpture, blending with the wearer`s body, identity, way of life and environment.

Those who collect the artist`s jewelry include Elizabeth Taylor, Peter Ustinov, Marcel Marceau and Leonard Bernstein.

``I make jewelry for only one woman, that`s me,`` Gera says. ``If anybody else likes it and wants to buy it, good.``" See less
