Low stock.

Known for her clean design of contemporary hand fabricated jewelry, Debbie Tuch's work with precious metals is "reminiscent of what you might find in a fairy tale set in the future." For Glitterlimes, she pursues her long fascination with both the natural and the fantastic by transforming actual slices of dried fruit into wearable jewels. Everything is coated in a unique durable glitter resin. Throughout the years Debbie and her scouts have traveled the world, looking for candies and fruits in Barcelona, Japan, Brazil, England, France and many other countries. In California, international fruits are abundant and brought much inspiration. There are new items added to the line each year. Some of the fruits she dries include, every citrus imaginable (3 types of limes, lemons, oranges, blood oranges, pumellos) and other exotic fruits such as, kiwano melon, lotus root, starfruit and persimmons. Every piece is sealed with a self-made glitter resin. Tuch fully preserves the natural structure of the fruit, then adds an exciting glow to both decorate and reinforce it. While the jewels are water resistant, they are best if stored in a dry place. Due to their organic properties some fruits will darken or fade in time, but will remain beautiful, shiny and glittery. Please do not ingest!
