.....Friedman says the current surge in interest in fine-craft jewelry in the area is due to a number of factors. Partly, she says, it's the influence of the Corcoran College of Art and Design, where you'll find such adventurous teachers as Jimin Park, who has been known to encase pearls in pig intestines. She also attributes it to the support of Georgetown's envelope-pushing Jewelers' Werk Galerie, whose CraftWeek contribution is a show featuring the jewelry of Mielle Harvey (one example is a pendant depicting a dead bird). ......
