Combining the most original discoveries of masters of the previous century in his creative work, J.A.R. has not just shaped his own stunning with its innovativeness style, but also has set the new criteria of the mastery in creating jewellery artworks. The highest quality of processing precious and non-precious materials, impressive design, deeply poetic variety of ideas and themes of his works, all this originated a wave of imitations to the jeweller of the world renown among independent masters and famous jewellery houses.
