Jewelry maker Jeremy Mays designs wearable pieces from the layered pages of vintage books, transforming their content into unique works that are nearly impossible to trace back to their paper origin.
To make these multi-shaped works, May first laminates hundreds of sheets of paper together.
He then creates the shape for the piece and finishes it off with a high gloss coating.
After production, May often inserts the works back into the books, bringing the transformed and colorful pages back to their material source.
The rings may lose the words and image of the original book, but May keeps references with photographs and copy of the ring’s former life.
The rings May makes all are inspired by books he thinks are perfect examples of literary beauty.
A beautiful way to keep the written word.

Ha! A bit big for my chubby fingers as well. I think I’d have the ring sitting right next to the hole in the book on a bookshelf under glass or something…it’s amazing how he can do these rings. There are bracelets in his collection, too.

These are really special but I think it is not easy to wear them if you have to work or clean your house 😀

Hi Claudia, these rings are truly imaginative, inspiring and I think poignantly topical.
