Rebecca Fogg is a recent graduate of Parsons the New School for Design; where she explored her love for multidisciplinary design. Through jewelry and textiles, Rebecca strives to create awareness of social and environmental issues through design.

Growing up in a small town in Vermont, ideas of sustainability and ethical practices were ingrained in her at a young age. The simple philosophies of being conscious of water usage, waste, locally grown products, and caring for your neighbor have had a huge influence on the designer she has grown to be.

SiO2 AgCu H2O

In this collection, SiO2 AgCu H2O, I wanted conceptually to break down the components into their original elements and explore ways to create transparent, responsible jewelry. I used all recycled sterling silver as my main material. When looking for stones, I found it difficult to find a 100% trustworthy source. So, instead of sourcing widely popular questionable stones, I mined my own Herkimer Diamonds from Herkimer, NY. As a jeweler, the experience of putting in the labor to mine my own stones was invaluable.
