Denise Betesh was born in Brooklyn, NY, but works out of her studio in Sante Fe, New Mexico. When starting a new piece, the gold is milled and drawn and tiny granules of gold are then individually fused onto the surface of the metal without solder. This delicate and detailed process, called ‘granulation’, was refined by the Etruscans, and has been used since the third millennium BC. Denise uses recycled gold and conflict-free diamonds and gemstones.
