About the artist

Gregory Pyra, an international jewelry artist, has his work shown currently in museums such as the Malbork Castle Museum, in Malbork, and the Amber Museum in Gdansk in Poland.  In the past he has made pieces for the Royal family in Sweden, for King Gustav and Queen Silvia in 1976 after his work was shown in Tidö Slott, in Tidö, Sweden.  Gregory has had shows since the 1970's until the present throughout Europe and United States.  Gregory had his jewelry works published in numerous books, which were printed in Germany, Poland, United Kingdom, France, etc.  Some of his recent made work currently is found in galleries in the United States.  His work in USA and Europe is one of the very few rarities that is still artist originaly made.  Gregory Pyra jewelry today clearly shows the difference between craft jewelry, popular in the UK and USA, and his own class of art jewelry, in that craft jewelry is just handmade vs. that art jewelry goes beyond into showing something that the artist creates that is not common to see. Persons interested in Gregory's recent made original works can contact the artist.

The word contemporary according to its definition  means something that is made in the present or around the present time, or something that is current or modern.  It is enough if something is made in the present day for something to be considered contemporary but however that something contemporary does not have to be typical.  Something not typical of the present time like Piro designer jewelry or Piro art jewelry may not be typical, but it still is contemporary but in addition is unique. Contemporary  jewelry by the Piro Group and jewelry designer artist Gregory Pyra Piro in sterling silver and 14 karat gold includes pieces such as bracelets, watches that are also bracelets, and many other contemporary jewelry pieces like ring pendants, which double up as both pendants and rings, stack rings, and rings of many different shank base designs like the band rings, nature rings, c rings, spiral rings, square rings and petite rings.  Piro can make matching earrings or any other pieces that will make sets if requested.  The contemporary jewelry designs by Piro have a special unique mix of facet cut semi precious and facet cut precious stones where one can see amethyst, blue topaz, citrine, garnet, peridot, tourmaline, and small diamonds with materials such as opal, ammonite, amber, glass, sea glass, mother pearl, and pearls.
