Update #8: E-Commerce Photo Shoot

Posted on August 2, 2010

Hello Backers-

Here is a beautiful image from the most recent photo shoot. This image, along with many more will be used for my e-commerce site. I'm also in the middle of working on my linesheet with these images to send out to stores for the fall. Thank you backers for helping me achieve my goal. I will be contacting you soon to reward you for your kind donation to my project.

Cheers -Beth

"To watch Beth Coiner dance is to understand her jewelry- elegantly restrained, fluid and funky, graceful and strong, delicate but gritty." -Tiffany Silverman, Domain Magazine

"It all started with the monkey." -Beth Coiner

While dancing with the troupe she founded in New York City, Beth was inspired to try metalsmithing after working for a company where she assembled, The Monkey, a computerized animation simulator puppet. "I got really good at working with my hands and went on to manipulate metal," she says. After leaving modern dance, Beth turned full-time to designing jewelry.

BEC is a jewelry line designed and produced by Beth Elaine Coiner. BEC's collections are sold in high-end boutiques, eco-conscious craft shows and online soon at www.allthingsbec.com. BEC's custom jewelry focuses primarily on wedding rings and fine jewelry, constructed from repurposed fine raw materials from client's old heirlooms.

Beth's work as both a choreographer and as a jewelry designer has been featured in New York Magazine, The New York Times, Time Out New York, Dance Magazine, The Village Voice, Blu Magazine, Lucky Magazine, Charleston Magazine, Domain Magazine, Garden & Gun Magazine and various blogs including
ReadyMade Magazine's.
