WHO/WHAT:
Mary Margrill, an artist, renowned jewelry designer, and philosopher who's work is sublimely steeped in spirituality has accepted an invitation from the prestigious Minneapolis Institution of Arts to exhibit her diamond encrusted “One World” necklace as part of the “Faith In Motion” gallery event. On display until July 31, 2013, the “One World” necklace will add an ethereal feel and altruistic message. Margrill creates a delicate reflection on some of the world's most recognized religions through iconic symbols and enchanting diamonds. The defining character on this whimsical yet powerful piece is the peace-sign clasp -- a metaphor that easily speaks for itself.
Documenting the development of explorers, merchants, colonists, pilgrims and missionaries that introduced their cultures and beliefs throughout the world via carrying small artifacts is the foundation of “Faith in Motion.” Portable art played a major role in the spread of religions throughout the world. "Faith in Motion," champions this very concept.
Mary Margrill's handmade necklace unites symbols of seven world faiths in 14K white gold and 2CT total weight of white diamonds. The “One World” necklace is valued between $16,000 and $20,000 USD and is available for purchase upon request by request through www.marymargrill.com.
