So, it's statement jewelry you're looking for? Look no further. 2Roses, the Southern California-based jewelry-making studio has pushed the envelope on experimentation in jewelry design and the results are outstandingly original and, in some case, downright humorous. Take for example, the eclectic jewelry made from computer components. Talk about taking the concept of recycling to a new level.

The studio, a collaborative effort between metal smith Corliss Rose and lapidiary John Lemieux Rose, uses a wide variety of highly unorthodox materials and truly pushes the limits on jewelry design -- establishing the Roses' place in American art jewelry at the same time. The studio's one-of-a-kind adornment and objects d' art are priced from $350 to $17,500.
