Robin Rife

Primary Medium: Jewelry
Other Mediums: None

Robin Rife’s Ethnic Beaded Line of jewelry is crafted from pieces she has collected on her travels, as well as buying from international traders over the last 15 years. Africa, Asia, southwestern North America are her primary influences. Robin integrates all of these unique and quality materials into jewelry that she considers a “contemporary classic” style which she hope will continue to be worn for generations to come not only due to its durability as far as being well constructed, but also in the sense of its wearability in that it will never go out of fashion given the timeless nature of the design.

Robin Rife’s found object/reconstructed Tribal Line of jewelry is created by a process she calls “cannibalizing” or a better term might be recycling. She collects old tribal jewelry when she travels. Robin salvages the quality pieces of broken and discarded pieces of tribal jewelry and reconfigures them into more modern and wearable designs.
