Melbourne-based jeweller, Polly Van Der Glas is doing weird and wonderful things with body parts. Her collection includes rings, necklaces, bracelets and earrings made with precious metals that have been cast from human hair and teeth,definitely making you glance twice. Polly pairs amazing silver-smithing craftsmanship with an eye for seeing beauty in something that might otherwise have been mistaken being morbid and grotesque. The Van Der Glas pieces are available atAlice Euphemia and Alphaville stores as well as Polly's Etsy shop, be sure to check out Polly's blog, too.

Recent Interesting Press


My work was recently featured in UK's Bizarre Magazine, in a section titled Eco For Freakos. It really made me giggle.

New Stockists...


My work is now also available at the beautifully dark Alphaville stores in Melbourne and Sydney. Alex and Georgie create incredible haunting spaces out of glass and bessa blocks, and I'm very excited to have my works shown in such an environment.
