Anne Sportun

The universal language of shapes, symbols and forms goes beyond way-finding, and Anne Sportun's jewelry designs are drawn from her strong belief in this universal language. Inspired by nature's irregularities, Sportun finds exactness in transferring the asymmetrical world around her to jewelry design.
By combining the techniques of traditional goldsmithing with her eye for the avant-garde, Sportun's creations convey a captivating balance of sophistication and simplicity. Imagine a bezel set diamond teetering on an unbalanced gold band. Bangles, necklaces, rings, earrings and even cufflinks capture her natural imagery.
Sportun's work with precious metal has garnered her an award for excellence in her native Canada. Additionally, the image currently found on the Canadian - United States postage stamp is a stack of rings with the designer's hand. Naturally contemporary. Irregularly perfect. Anne Sportun's jewelry speaks in a riveting language of oxymorons.
