Visions of Creation

A freelance writer penned an article on ROBERTO VENGOECHEA. The headline read: "Imagine Dr. Seuss meets Salvador Dali... Vengoechea's contemporary designs encompass both beauty and madness similar to Dali's style while defying acceptable 21st century jewelry traditions, with square, architectural and geometric shapes inspired by Spanish architect Antonio Gaudi. Roberto Vengoechea is a self-taught designer and sculptor born in Colombia, South America. His 30 years of experience inspires sophisticated and contemporary fine jewelry featuring square, geometric and architectural shaped rings, cast in precious metals, using the "lost wax" process and incorporating fine colored gemstones and diamonds. He breaks away from the traditional round shank to create his own unique and distinctive shapes.
