Item Details
Description
JESSE BRILLON (1972-) HAIDA/CREE
Eagle Cuff / Bangle Bracelet,
repoussé sterling silver, 2 x 2.5 x 2.5 in (5.1 x 6.3 x 6.3 cm) / circumference: 7.5 in (19.1 cm), 81 g
signed and inscribed, “JBRILLON / HAIDA".
Provenance
Doug Reynolds Gallery, Vancouver, BC;
Acquired from the above by Mr. Morton and Mrs. Estelle Sosland, Kansas City, MO;
Estate of the above.
After receiving a gold bracelet made by Don Yeomans as a gift, Jesse Brillon was inspired to pursue his own career in carving and jewellery creation. He first apprenticed under Yeomans and later with Gitskan artist Phil Janzé. Brillon is celebrated for his achievements in the respoussé technique, wherein stone matrices of molds are used to bring out designs in relief or to impress them into a sheet of metal. As a result of his talents his bracelets are near sculptural in their presence. In the present work, the salient attributes of the eagle are emphasized.
