My son and I had fun making paper collage pictures on a Sunday afternoon. He decided for a tiger head and I really like the outcome and the talks we had during the proces. #Louis #creativework #tiger #roaringtiger #papermosaic #funwithkids #byLouis #Sundayafternoon #kids #paper #collage

Today around noon I went for a long walk in the Danish #forrests to visit the very beautiful huge old #oaktrees, that make me think of #fairytales. Bright sunshine and a wonderful fresh air with #autumn smells of leaves and earth gave me new energy. #Klosterskoven #photo #bysonjaseidl #inspiration

A pair of earrings, I have been making in many variations. 'Karambole' earrings are like many others of my designs inspired by geometry in nature, as observed in beautiful small seed cases or flower buds. #Earrings #silver925 #Karambole #designjewellery #handcrafted #bysonjaseidl #goldsmith

Another poster in shades of blue and green from the same period of time, around 1997. The handwritten text is from a novel by Hemingway. I used water colour both for the letters and illustration. #calligraphy #Kalligraphie #Hemingway #watercolour #Aquarell #bysonjaseidl #Handschrift #poster #kursiv

SMK. I saw a very inspiring exhibition at the "Statens Museum for Kunst" in Copenhagen the other day, together with my friend. Here a wonderful portrait by Danish artist Bertha Wegmann. #painting #oiloncanvas #berthawegmann #SMK #exhibition #DanishArt #portrait

Chunky Sterlig silver ring with a 18ct gold bezel, that frames a beautifully cut aquamarine cabochon with an unique inclusion. I designed this ring for a woman who appreciates hand crafted jewellery. #finejewellery #finejewelry #gemstone #stonesetting #ring #aquamarine #bysonjaseidl #goldsmith #art

Simple sketches from an earlier work proces, where I made my own steel punches to get the desired design result. Spring approaching with the first tiny flowers. Let's see where it goes. #Spring #sketches #finegold #earrings #finejewellery #flowers #smithing #goldsmithing #steelpunches #bysonjaseidl

Lake Buresø. Sightseeing in Denmark. Beautiful nature along the shore and great paths for walking. An early March morning with bright sunshine. #sightseeingDk #lake #landscape #sunrise #bluesky #bysonjaseidl #inspiration #nature

Lake Buresø in Denmark with a beautiful sunrise yesterday morning. I went for an early walk along the shore and enjoyed the wonderful scenery in March. I might show a few more landscape photos, which I use as an inspiration for my goldsmithing and art work. #bysonjaseidl #inspiration #Buresø #lake

A beautiful black hairband decorated with carneol beads on gold thread, and mounted with oxidised flowers in sterling silver. Creative craftmanship. Romantic mind. Love for decoration & detail. #handcrafted #finejewellery #finejewelry #bysonjaseidl #goldsmith #artist #designjewelry #MArca #carneol

Yesterday I made this Japanese rice cake for our friends' visit. A sweet shortcrust pastry with almonds and a filling of creamy rice pudding, scented with rose water and vanilla, and thinly sliced apples. 🌹 It goes well with lemon sorbet. #baking #Japan #bakingsky #bysonjaseidl #ricecake #rosewater

This cast silver ring evokes many different associations in people, which I think is interesting, that we can see and be inspired by things in different ways. #Ring #Champagne #Silver #casting #finejewelry #handcrafted #finejewellery #bysonjaseidl #goldsmith #silversmith

Baking yesterday was a success, kids have been eating all in just one day. In Danish we call it 'Rugbrødschips' (rye bread chips). Cut a loaf of rye bread in thin slices, brush with little oil, drizzle with salt and oregano, and bake for about 20 min until crispy. #snack #chips #baking #bread #fun

Experimenting with glass today, together with my son Ilja... Maybe I can use those first sketches as lids in wooden boxes. It is snowing outside, a cozy Saturday morning. #experiments #inspiration #holidaywithmyson #familyactivity #glass #colouredglass #tryingsomethingnew #cozysaturday

Memories. This silver teabox I made many years ago, and later sold it to a very nice couple. On top of a glass lid a decoration of electroformed and fine gold plated metal mesh. #teabox #Teedose #Tee #tea #Silver925 #box #experimentalartwork #silversmithing #finejewellery #finejewelry #bysonjaseidl

This collier I made in London in 2003 at the Royal College of Art. It was part of my jewellery series "Growing Ornaments", where I experimented with various possibilities in chainmail linking. #collier #chainmail #finejewellery #finejewelry #silver #artwork #handmade #bysonjaseidl #silversmith #MA

Today I was visiting one of the most wonderful places for a goldsmith to see. Maximilianmuseum in Augsburg in Southern Germany is highly recommendable for us craftsmen to visit. Some of the most beautiful artwork in goldsmithing is exhibited here. #inspiration #Maximilianmuseum #Augsburg #artwork

A series of loop earrings laid out on my work bench. Experimenting with the metal, bending, smithing and sometimes trying 'impossible things' has given useful new shapes sometimes. #loops #earrings #goldsmithing #handmade #bysonjaseidl #silversmith #designerMArca #finejewellery #finejewelry

This brooch I made back in 2004 as a part of a jewellery series where I experimented with chainmail, and developed my own shapes, very much inspired by growing organisms in nature. #brooch #chainmail #artwork #bysonjaseidl #finejewellery #finejewelry #Goldschmiedekunst #handmade #photoetching

In this ring I tried to design a model that integrates an oval cabochon bezel into the shape of a fairly thin ring for an elegant overall expression. #18ct #turmaline #ring #castingmodel #handmade #goldsmithing #finejewellery #finejewelry #bysonjaseidl
