Ornamental Hands series references the elegant hand positions often seen in historic artworks throughout the centuries. Each work consists of splint-like attachments for the fingers that are suspended by chains and braced on the wrist, positioning the hands marionette style.
Statement Jewellery Encourages Gesture
Here is a collection of jewellery that will get you noticed.
Making a bold statement this series of mechanical jewellery on first glance almost looks like Victorian torture instruments, but are infact designed to amplify body language and encourage gesture.
Created by American designer Jennifer Crupi, the pieces interpret and force various actions and positions of the body - such as the 'power gesture' which requires the user to assume the authoritative steepled fingers, or the 'leg bouncer' which focuses on the ubiquitous anxious tick.
The 39-year-old who lives in New Jersey says her work is inspired by people and their body language.
"Part of my interest in body language also stems from the fact that I have always been a very self-conscious person. I seem to constantly be aware of how I look and am perceived by others," explains Jennifer.
Believing that jewellery plays a great part in body language and the way people portray themselves to others Jennifer has created a series called 'Ornamental Hands' which references elegant hand positions often seen in artworks throughout the centuries.
She says: "Rather than wearing a bracelet to adorn your hand, why not wear a bracelet that positions your hand in a decorative and elegant way?
"The marionette-like jewellery also reinforces the idea of training the hand to rest in this graceful manner."
Jennifer has also created a series called 'Unguarded Gestures' which consists of prosthetic-like necklaces and neckpieces that encourage the w...

Bavaria, Germany
THE MAGIC OF BAVARIA
Lederhosen, schnitzel and beer can, of course, be found in abundance in Bavaria, but this German state also has much, much more to offer the traveller.
Think breathtaking alpine scenery, quaint towns and historical cities, fairytale castles and historic customs and traditions - Germany's largest bundesland has it all.
Situated in the south-east of the country, Bavaria extends from the North German Plain down into the Alps.
It shares international borders with the Czech Republic and Austria as well as with Switzerland. The awe inspiring Bavarian Alps define the border with Austria and within the range is the highest peak in Germany, the Zugspitze.
Along with the Rheinland and Berlin, Bavaria is Germany's most popular tourist destination and it isn't hard to see why.
The town of Mittenwald is situated in the Valley of the River Isar and is one of the best known tourist places in the Bavarian Alps. The town is famous for the manufacture of violins, violas and cellos, and its streets are littered with handcrafted signs advertising where the instruments are for sale.
The most significant landmark in the village is the pink colored Roman Catholic church of Saints Peter and Paul, which is typical of the region. The Bavarians have a long history of decorating the exteriors of their houses and businesses with both religious and historic paintings. And the church in Mittenwald, as well as many of the surrounding buildings, is decorated with elaborate paintings on its exterior walls.
Fussen is a small enchanting town, rich in culture and art, that is located on the banks of the Lech River. Standing at 808 m above sea level it is he highest town in Bavaria and also m...
