Art Smith was one of the few Afro-Caribbean jewelers to achieve international recognition, and a universe of private and museum collectors. He was born in Cuba in 1917 to Jamaican parents, and his formative years saw him mentored by Winifred Mason, an African American jeweler with Caribbean ties. Smith's influences come from surrealism, primitivism, the avant-garde scene, and American sculptor Alexander Calder-his pieces were often large in scale with a dynamic slant. These sterling silver earrings are a prime example, complete with graduated components that dangle alongside your jawline.
