ARTICLE
Finalist for the 2021 Susan Beech Mid-Career Grant
by Art Jewelry Forum

Established by San Francisco-based jewelry collector Susan Beech, the $20,000 Susan Beech Mid-Career Grant has as its objective to recognize a mid-career artist who has made a substantial contribution to the field of art jewelry. Esther Doornbusch was one of two finalists. She took time from working on her free jewelry encyclopedia to talk to AJF about her grant proposal for a curated jewelry image database. She also gives peeks of the Unger Collection behind the scenes at the Rijksmuseum, via snapshots of objects stored in the archive!
