What you'll learn in this episode: Why jewelry artists from the 60s and 70s, such as Andrew Grima and Arthur King, are gaining more appreciation today The difference between artist jewelers and jewelry by artists What a jewelry lover should do to refine their taste and start their collection What defines a passionate collector What to expect from the Kimberly's upcoming exhibition “Simply Brilliant: Artist-Jewelers of the 1960s and 1970s” About Kimberly Klosterman A graduate of Stephens College with a BFA in design, Kimberly Klosterman was always interested in art, antiques and design. After graduation she studied Decorative Arts at Sotheby's London, where she was exposed to the world of antique jewelry. Upon return to Cincinnati, she and her Husband, Michael Lowe, opened their first gallery selling art and antiques. At this time, she also began her search for fine jewelry. To make ends meet for the new business, Klosterman went to work in the family company, Klosterman Baking Company, in 1982 where she currently moonlights as C.E.O. Her jewelry business, established after another Sotheby's course, Understanding Jewelry, was opened in 1996. Her love of 1960s and 70s jewelry developed through the tutelage of Amanda Triossi, whose own collection thrilled Klosterman. After living in Amsterdam and London, she returned to Cincinnati where she continues to collect fine jewelry.  Klosterman has given gallery talks at the Cincinnati Art Museum, the Taft Museum, the American Society of Jewelry Historians, and the American Society of Jewelry Appraisers, NYC Jewelry Week, Christies Auction, Bonhams Auction, etc.   The current exhibition “Simply Brilliant: Artist-Jewelers of the 1960s and 1970s,” organized by Cynthia Amnéus, Chief Curator and Curator of Fashion at the Cincinnati Art Museum, is a result of Klosterman's passion for collecting. Her goal, to help preserve the legacy of these bold men and women who were jewelers to the jet-set. The exhibition, which opened at DIVA in Antwerp, Belgum and traveled to the Schmuckmuseum in Pforzhiem, Germany, will be on view in Cincinnati Oct 22- Feb 6. A catalog complete with biographies and makers' marks accompanies the exhibition.

For Kimberly Klosterman, it's someone who can't get enough of the objects they love, no matter what they are. She herself became a passionate collector of 1960s and 70s jewelry long before it became popular. Her collection is now being featured in a traveling exhibition, “Simply Brilliant: Artist-Jewelers of the 1960s and 1970s.” She joined the Jewelry Journey Podcast to talk about the qualities that draw her to 60s and 70s jewelry; why the unique jewelry of this period has come back in style; and what aspiring collectors should do to create a thoughtful collection. Read the episode transcript here.  Sharon: Could you collect a production piece in your collection? Kimberly: I do have some production pieces in my collection, for example pieces by Elsa Peretti; I happen to like Elsa Peretti very much. I think she's a great designer, but again, she settled on jewelry as being her first and foremost love. Even though they're production pieces, in my opinion, she's an artist jeweler because she's designing that way. Other production pieces that I have—during the late 60s and early 70s, Cartier made some production pieces that were pretty wonderful. There was another person, Aldo Cipullo, who designed the love bracelet and a number of other things that Cartier started selling. I think of him as an artist jeweler as well. Sharon: Is a piece that you want for your collection high-end or limited like Peretti? She's not what I consider a production jeweler. I'm sure some of her work she signed and numbered, but I wouldn't consider it production. You used TJ Maxx before; if you walked into TJ Maxx and saw a piece and you thought, “Oh my god, this is incredible,” would you maybe not wear it but consider buying it?  Kimberly: I love all kind of things, but for my collection, no. They're signed pieces. That's something, too, that I always looked for in forming my collection. I would see things that I thought were interesting and I would buy them. It didn't always have to be signed, but nine out of 10 times, if the piece was signed, even if I didn't know the name of the maker at all, I would buy it if I liked the piece because then I could do the research later. A lot of the material I have in my collection came to me that way, by buying unknown people and later finding out who they were and why they were important to this group of people in this time period. Sharon: If somebody wants to start a collection, if you've ignited somebody's interest in this, where would you say they start? I don't necessarily believe that things always have to be signed. I have some very nice things that aren't signed, but where would you suggest they start? Are there certain designers? Kimberly: First of all, just getting out and seeing what's available is very helpful. Go to the big shows. If you can, go to Miami, or there's a show coming up in New York. Go to interesting places, because you can see a lot of jewelry and start thinking about what you might like. Look at books, look at auction catalogues; auctions are also a great place to look. Then settle on something that sings to you and go down that path. I think people have accumulations of things, which is really a shame. I find that people want what their friends have. They buy this and this, things that are hot, like Van Cleef and Arpels Zodiac pendants, which are fine; they're wonderful and they're really cool, but you start ticking off things. I want an Alhambra necklace; I want a Van Cleef Zodiac signed. To me, that's wonderful jewelry. It's great to wear all the time, and it is a collection. Believe me, the stuff will become and is more valuable than many of the one-of-a-kind pieces I like. You know what? Scratch all that stuff. That's not good to say. Sharon: It is a collection if you're talking about the Zodiac piece and Alhambra.  Kimberly: It's a collection and it's fine to have. I guess sometimes I get bummed out because I feel so passionate about these wonderful, one-of-a-kind pieces, and I find that a lot of times, people can't wrap their minds around it because it's something they don't understand or haven't seen much of. Sharon: Also, you might not be doing as much dealing now, but you look at things in terms of whether it's going to appreciate. I buy things knowing sometimes they will appreciate. I have a friend who buys only with the idea of selling it. I don't do that.  Kimberly: No, I definitely don't either. I just buy my passion and what appeals to me. Sharon: I don't know if I would have had the fortitude; you must have had to buckle up. Why you started out in this genre of jewelry, you must have had to buck a lot of people saying, “Oh my god, what do you see in that?” Kimberly: Well, dealers didn't say that because they were just happy to get rid of it. I had a number of people showing me things that weren't right at all, and I'd still get that. This is my view, and it's like, “No, that doesn't look like it at all.” I just love this path, and I think you do too, of having jewelry that celebrates your individualism. Sharon: Similar to you, I love it when I find a piece that's one of a kind, even though nobody ever heard of the person. They're never going to become a Cartier, but I like the fact that it's really different. I'm curious about the exhibit, which I'm looking forward to seeing at some point in Cincinnati. Tell us about how it came about. Was that your brainchild? Kimberly: Yeah, it was interesting. In 2012, I had given a lecture for the American Society of Jewelry Historians in Manhattan, and in the audience was the curator of jewelry for the Cooper Hewitt, Sarah Coffin. Sarah came up to me after the lecture and said, “All this stuff is amazing. I think we should do an exhibition,” and I said, “Oh, that's a cool idea. I like that idea.” For one reason or another, we could never get it together.  In 2015, I started thinking, “I'm going to propose this to someone else,” and I started thinking about what museum might make sense and who might like the idea. I went to the Cincinnati Art Museum and heard Cynthia Amnéus speak, and I was very impressed by the talk she gave. I remember that it was on modernism, a subject I know pretty well, and she had to get the lecture together overnight. I thought, “Wow, if she can do that overnight, she knows her stuff.” So, I went to Cynthia and said, “I have this collection of jewelry, and I'd like to talk to you about it.” She took my PowerPoint presentation and she really liked it. I thought this would make perfect sense because she's Curator of Fashion for the Cincinnati Art Museum, and it's literally in my own backyard. I know the material really well and I knew that a lot of people didn't understand it, so I knew I was going to have to be hands on with the exhibition. This gave me the opportunity to do that, and it was really exciting.  After the show was accepted, we decided to travel it. It was an honor that DIVA picked up the show. They did a great exhibition. Sadly, I didn't get to see it because of Covid. Following that, it went to the Schmuckmuseum of Pforzheim, Germany. Cornelie Holzach knew all about this kind of material, which I was very excited about. I had met with her and asked if they would be interested. She knew almost everyone in the exhibition, and she had great stories about them. I showed her a watch I had and she said, “I think that's this artist,” and she went back and showed me where the source came from and some of their early catalogues. It was a real honor to be in both of those museums. I'm looking forward to the show in Cincinnati. Sharon: How long is it on for? Until next year, at least? Kimberly: Yes, it runs October 21 through February 6. Sharon: I certainly hope I get there. Cincinnati from Los Angeles is at least a little bit closer than New York. The other thing I'm curious about is what attracted you to this kind of jewelry first and what holds your attention. Kimberly: For me, it's the naturalistic quality of the jewelry. There's a lot of texture and warmth in most of the jewelry I collect, and I love the idea of using odd materials. The necklace I have on today by Arthur King has an amber piece with a petrified mosquito in it, and I just love that. The Gilbert Albert pieces that are in the catalogue with the fossilized ammonites, I think those are very interesting. I have some jewelry also by Gilbert Albert with beetles in them. I find all this natural material something special, and the natural crystals and uncut stones. Sharon: Did it give birth to what we see today? Kimberly: I really believe so. I haven't talked to any young designers as to what their inspiration is, but one would think. All you have to do is look at the catalogue and page through it to see how this jewelry could have influenced young designers. Jacobs, for example, is a huge fan of Andrew Grima. So was the fashion world, I think.  Sharon: You could take any piece from the catalogue and put it in Nieman Marcus today. It wouldn't look like a dated piece or anything; it would look like a fashion piece or a current piece. It's a beautiful book, and I encourage anybody who has an interest in this to get their hands on it and take a look. Did you think about the book on its own aside from the exhibit, or did the book only come about because you knew you were doing an exhibit? Kimberly: The book came about because of the exhibit, but I did feel very strongly that the two should go hand in hand. I think, especially for jewelry, that's a wonderful thing to happen, because you're able to see the pieces in the flesh rather than just see them in a book. I do like having the record of the book. One thing we did, and this is where the dealer and the collector part of me comes in, is that the book is mainly buyers of these different artist jewelers who were fascinated themselves. Many of them sold to the jet set; it was that time and period and craziness. There are buyers of the artist jewelers, and in the back we have makers' marks of all the jewelers that are in the exhibition. That comes in handy, especially for some of the more cryptic makers' marks that people can't figure out so well.  Sharon: It's fabulous to see that. It's a great resource. I know you have a background—is it in art history? Kimberly: Design primarily, but my husband I have had a gallery for as long as I can remember, and we've been together about 40 years. My husband sells, but mainly he's like I am. We're both hopeless collectors. It's mostly minimal and conceptual art. Sharon: Wow! Do you enjoy the research part because it's researching jewelry and art, or do you like research in general? Kimberly: I love research. I love research in general I suppose, but anything I'm passionate about. The only other thing I like to do is eat. Sharon: I can join you in that. Are there certain characteristics that a new collector should look at in terms of signatures or one-of-a-kind or limited edition? You're driven by what you like and you're suggesting that new collector would be driven by what they like. O.K., but are there certain things—everything you're pointing out has what I call tentacles. You called them something else before. What are the characteristics here? Kimberly: Again for me, I think it goes back to the naturalism of all the material. I have to say I've always described my jewelry as painterly, meaning it's textural, it has some kind of artistic quality to it. If I had to give advice to a budding collector, like I said, it would be try to see as much as you can, read as much as you can, and if you don't read, that's O.K.; look at the pictures. Look at jewelry catalogues and jewelry books and jewelry publications. Everybody will hit on something. It's like you said earlier; you've got how many black shirts in your closet? I'm with you on that account, too. I think we will walk down our path of what our own taste is. It's just discovering what the level of taste is and then going with it.  Sharon: Years ago, I was trying to decide what I should keep, what I should look at passing on or selling, and someone who sold art said to me, “Buy what you love.” I talked to other collectors in other areas where I tend to be—if it's in TJ Maxx, I may not buy it, just to be truthful about it. Are you a believer in the buy what you love, or are you looking for certain things? Kimberly: Oh, absolutely. You have to buy what you love. The things is, you have to learn what you love, and you only do that by exposing yourself to what's out there, or else you don't know what you love. It's just like a kid; they won't eat certain things because they  haven't tried them. Then they try them and they like them. You need to know what's out there and what's available so you can form an educated opinion. After all, like Christopher Dresser said, “Knowledge is power.” I think that's an important statement. Sharon: I want to say it's amazing—that's not really the word I want, but the fact that you've collected this for so many decades now, several decades, and it's still what you love. I don't know what I want to say, but there are things I've liked; there are trends, but the fact that you have been so passionate about it for so long— Kimberly: It's interesting, because I am very passionate about it still and I don't see that waning at all, but that said, I love ancient jewelry. I love antique jewelry. I love jewelry by artists. There are many, many different kinds of jewelry that I absolutely adore as well. I just don't go down that path as much because I find that I know more about this now. It's like a friend of mine said, “Stick to your knitting.” I try to do that. However, with the ancient jewelry and ethnic jewelry, it informs the stuff I collect anyway. It's not uncommon for me to wear a pre-Columbian pendant. What else do I have that I like to wear a lot? I have a lot of jewelry by a woman named Patti Cadby Birch who took ancient materials and reconfigured them in the 70s, so the materials are ancient, but they're a little more wearable. I love that as well. Sharon: Have you thought about what your next exhibition is going to be? Kimberly: I'm going to say, because I don't know if it'll be an exhibition or not, but I'm really fond of the work by Arthur King. I think he's an interesting American jeweler and an important American jeweler from the 60s. There are lots of people out there that have his jewelry. In my dream world, if I have time to do it, I'd like to do an exhibition of Arthur King, not just with the jewelry I have. Anybody listening, if you're an Arthur King collector, I would really like to do a museum exhibition of his work. I would do that myself. Sharon: That would be fabulous. I don't know his work. When you say there are a lot of people out there who collect him, I'm sure there are. I don't see a lot of it. When I go to shows, I don't see it or I don't know it. It's not being called out, like when they have a little tag saying, “This is a Cartier.” There are lots of jewelers besides Cartier, but I'm just saying. That would be fabulous. I didn't even know he was American. Kimberly: Oh, yeah. He had a couple of stores in Manhattan and, like I said, in Florida as well, so lot of his jewelry ended up in those pockets of the world. A lot of people knew him, and there are some great stories about him. I have been in touch with people that were close to him, and right now I'm trying to get their stories just in case this comes to fruition. Sharon: That would be a fabulous next step. I'm sure you're just going to sit down and be, like my husband would say, “eating bonbons” after this. Anyway, Kimberly, thank you so much for being here. The exhibit sounds wonderful. Who better to put it together and drive it than you, with your passion and knowledge? We are all looking forward to it. It starts October 21 at the Cincinnati Art Museum, which I understand is a fabulous museum. I look forward to getting there, and I hope everybody listening to this can make it also. Thank you so much. Kimberly: Thank you so much, Sharon. I hope to see you in Cincinnati.  We will have images posted on the website.

While she's dealt in jewelry across a number of periods, she's recognized for her collection of designer jewels from the 60s and 70s. Her collection is currently being featured in the museum exhibit “Simply Brilliant,” scheduled to open at the Cincinnati Art Museum on October 21. The show has already been at DIVA, which is the new diamond museum in Antwerp, as well as at Pforzheim in Germany. We'll hear all about Kimberly's jewelry journey today as well as about the museum exhibit. Kimberly, welcome to the program. Kimberly: Thank you. I'm so happy to be here, Sharon. Sharon: Tell us about your jewelry journey. I was looking at this beautiful catalogue, “Simply Brilliant.” It's a standalone book, but it's a catalogue of the show. I'm reading the review that Ruth Peltason, I think, did with you. You've really had such a journey if you'd tell us about that. Kimberly: I've been interested in jewelry for a long time and started collecting Art Deco things and different kinds of jewelry earlier on. I decided if I'm going to do this, I'd better learn a little more about what I'm getting myself into. So in 1996, I went to London and found out there was a course called “Understanding Jewelry” at Sotheby's. I thought, “This might be a great thing for me to do. I've been a Sotheby's student before, and I learned a lot the first time around.” This was a course that lasted five or six weeks and Amanda Triosi was teaching it. So, my husband and I went to London and I took the course. It was great. It was the history of jewelry. It was a lot of fun. I do have an art background, so it was easy to pick up on the jewelry she was talking about. We had great speakers, but one thing that stood out for me was that I was exposed to the artists' jewelry of the 1960s and 1970s, and that happened in two ways.  One of our projects for extra points was to go see a show at Hancocks in London, and that was an Andrew Grima retrospective. I went to the show, and I was completely bowled over. I was almost shaking when I saw the jewelry there. I walked in, looked at it, and the man behind the counter was very tall and dapper, a really elegant man, and he looked at me and saw my enthusiasm and said, “Would you like to meet the artist?” I said, “Oh yes, that would be fantastic,” and he extended his hand. It was Andrew Grima. That was my first exposure to that kind of jewelry. Up until then, if you think about what was happening the mid-90s, everybody was into white gold and small jewelry and little, tiny things. Here were pieces that were big and bold and gold, and all kinds of materials were used instead of precious and semiprecious stones. It was a real eye-opener. The other thing is Amanda, who has become a very close friend, at the time when I was her student, she took some of us back to her little apartment in London and said, “Would you like to see my jewels?” I said, “Oh sure, that would be great.” So, she reached behind the radiator and pulled out these hot jewels, and they were incredible. She had a necklace by Gilbert Albert and Andrew Grima pieces and a host of things I had never laid my eyes on. The other few students that were with us didn't get it at all. I immediately responded to it, and I knew that was a path I wanted to carve out for myself.  At the time, I was taking a bit of a break from my family business, which is Klosterman Baking Company. My husband and I were in Europe, and I didn't know what I was going to do. I woke up one morning and said, “I know; I'm going to sell jewelry.” I took the previous stuff I had collected, which actually turned out to be a lot better than I thought, and started selling that, but with an eye to look for these other jewels. I think one thing that was so amazing to me is how difficult it was to source that material from the 60s and 70s. I didn't realize until some years later that the reason was because it simply wasn't out of the jewelry boxes yet. It hadn't come into the marketplace, and if it did, it was probably scrapped pretty quickly, as they were heavy pieces of gold. So I went on this quest, but it took quite a while to build a collection. If you are thinking about this jewelry in today's marketplace, say for the past four or five years, it's everywhere, but it was very difficult to source in the beginning. I made a little booklet on my iMac that I used to take to shows on the jewelry I was collecting. This was before we had cellphones. I would take it around with me to shows and show various dealers, “If you get anything like this, call me. Here's my card.” That's how I started collecting. Sharon: Did you get a response from dealers? Did they say, “Oh, I've had that in my drawer for ages”? Kimberly: I did have a funny thing happen one time in Miami. I was wearing a piece of jewelry by Arthur King, and I really like King's work. He's an American jeweler that started working in the late 40s. He started out as a studio jeweler making his own jewelry in Greenwich Village, right on the same street as Sam Kramer and— Sharon: Art Smith? Kimberly: Art Smith, yes. He was right in that group. I think he went to Florida right after that and eventually started working in gold. He started hiring other bench jewelers to help him as well. He had a place in Cuba. He had a couple of different stores in Florida, and he was also showing at Fortnum & Mason in London. He's a very interesting jeweler to me, but anyway, back to the Miami Beach, Florida Antique Show. I was wearing an Arthur King piece, and one of the dealers looked at me and said, “Do you like that stuff?” and I said, “Yeah, I do.” She said, “I have these things in my safe.” It ended up being a number of pieces that came directly from Louise King, Arthur's wife, and she had them on consignment. I bought those pieces and started my friendship with that dealer, who down the road would show me things like that when she got them.  Sharon: I'm sure people were surprised because that stuff was so out of fashion when you started collecting it. Kimberly: It really was. The other dealer stories are a total crackup. I say my best pieces came out of people's big and ugly boxes. You would go to the show, and they'd have this box, big and ugly.  Sharon: Today it's not white gold, but it's still tiny, little pieces. I call it Brentwood jewelry.  That's an affluent area near here. I'm knocking somebody's jewelry, not any particular designer, but I don't understand; it doesn't show up. Why are you wearing it? That's all. Kimberly: I've always said it's funny about jewelry. I learned a long time ago that people that wear big jewelry don't necessarily have to be big people. A lot of times different jewelers would say, “Oh well, you need a big woman for that,” and I said, “No, you need a big personality.” Some of the people I know that wear the biggest jewelry happen be to the tiniest people. Sharon: That's true with art jewelry being made out of plastic or wood. It's big, but it may be a little more out there, avant garde. I remember at a gallery, there was a small, very elegant woman telling me how she would have to convince her clients they could wear this stuff. They didn't have to be big women, like you're saying. You mentioned Graham Hughes. Tell us who this is and how he influenced your collecting or your path. Kimberly: Graham Hughes was in the late 50s at Goldsmiths' Hall. His father had been at Goldsmiths' Hall and Graham followed in his father's footsteps. This is in London. Graham was initially involved with the silver department there, but he had a real love of jewelry and decided this would be a good avenue for Goldsmiths' Hall to go down to start a collection of jewelry. He was very passionate about it and has written a number of books on the history of jewelry. I always liked his take on things. We just seemed to have the same taste. Even in his historic collection of jewels that he chose to picture in his books, they were always the best; they're just great. He was a bit of a character, from what I understand.  I never did get to meet him, but he got together with some people at the V&A. They started talking in the late 50s about putting an exhibition of jewelry together, and they didn't want to do just any jewelry. They thought jewelry was boring, staid; “What can we do to shake it up?” This little group initially said, “I know. We'll get artists to make jewelry. We'll commission artists to make jewelry and we'll have this exhibition.” They talked about that, and the more they talked about it—it was actually Graham, I believe, that said, “No, we can't do that, because artists don't always understand how jewelry hangs on the body or how it attaches to clothing because they're artists; they're not jewelers.” He said, “We need to reach out to people that are jewelers making amazing jewelry already, people making one-of-a-kind pieces of jewelry that are thinking outside the box.”  There were a couple of different reasons; I don't know exactly what they were. Health was one issue. One of the people had a health issue, and something else happened at the V&A where they were going to cancel the show. Instead, Graham proposed that they have the show at Goldsmiths' Hall, and everything came together. They started reaching out to people all over the world for this proposed show. I can't remember how many countries; maybe 80 countries, something like that. Just under a thousand pieces, 900 and some odd pieces were exhibited in the show when it happened in 1961. It was also a historic show because it showed works by René Lalique, Chaumet, some other big houses. It was kind of a survey in that area, but the idea was modern jewelry, 1890-1961. Sharon: I want to make sure everybody knows that the V&A is the Victoria and Albert Museum. Kimberly: Anyway, this put a lot of people in the limelight. People like Arthur King exhibited from America in that show; Andrew Grima exhibited; just a whole host of people. Those people helped inform my collection. The catalogue he wrote that accompanied the exhibition as well as the book that followed it became the Bible for my collection, my wish book. Sharon: I want to ask you something else, a small detail. Amanda Triosi's class, was that every day for five or six weeks or once or twice a week? Because if it was every day, wow!  Kimberly: It was five days, and it was great. We had the best speakers and great field trips. It was really wonderful. Sharon: Wow! I'm ready. Sign me up. That sounds wonderful. I'm curious if today you go to some social event and wear your jewelry, do people understand it more than they did 10, 15 years ago? Kimberly: I think so, absolutely! If you look in today's marketplace, heck, go to TJ Maxx and look in the case. So much jewelry is influenced by what was happening in the 60s and 70s, whether these contemporary jewelers know it or not. It has definitely come back around. Uncut stones, rough diamonds, textured gold, bigger, bolder items; all of these things have come back into the marketplace, and yellow gold again as opposed to white gold. Sharon: Was there a time, maybe 20, 25 years ago, when friends, people at social events, would say, “What is that?” Was there no understanding or appreciation? Kimberly: I think overall people do appreciate it more than they did. To my face they didn't tell me they didn't get it, but it's been interesting working with different people on the exhibition that maybe weren't exposed to this kind of jewelry before, even possibly the curator at the art museum, Cynthia Amnéus, who wrote the book, or Ruth Peltason, who's also writing a book on 1960s and 1970s jewelry and did the interview with me in our book. I have educated them to the point where they really like the jewelry now.  Sharon: It definitely grows on you. Kimberly: It does, and I think that's true with anything. People tend to like what they know, not know what they like. Sharon: That's interesting. That could lead into a whole different discussion. Did somebody have to teach us to love Art Deco jewelry, or is that just something that is beautiful? Kimberly: You know what? I think it's just beautiful. I remember declaring, after I graduated from my “Understanding Jewelry” course at Sotheby's, that I knew what I was going to sell: Cartier Art Deco, because it's the best. Well yeah, everybody else thought so, too. So, I carved out a niche for myself that was remotely different. Sharon: It must have been easier to source at least, Cartier Art Deco. A lot pricier I would think, but easier to source. Kimberly: Easier to source, but out of reach for me at the time. Sharon: In some of the literature I was reading about you, it says you sell to the passionate collector. What is the passionate collector to you? Kimberly: It's anyone that can't enough of anything. I have one friend I sell to and they're—you know what? I think you should answer that question. You're the collector. Sharon: I was thinking about that. Is that somebody like me who occasionally will buy—let's say it's out of my budget; it's out of my reach, but it's so beautiful I have to have it. There are a lot of things I don't think about that way. I don't need sports cars. I don't need a boat. I don't need a horse. Kimberly: I think it's when you can't stop. I know from my own self I'm a passionate collector. I keep thinking, “I don't need that, but that's fantastic.” You try to say, “Hey, I've got all this. I don't need another example of this, but I need an example of this.” Sharon: I's like as my mother used to say to me, “You have a black blouse.” Yes, I have a black blouse, but does it have short sleeves? Does it have a bow? Anyway, the other thing you talked about is jewelry by artists versus artists' jewelry. Can you tell us a little bit more? Kimberly: The difference between an artist jeweler and jewelry by an artist is this: an artist like Calder, Goya, Dalí, etc. makes other art. They're more passionate—I don't know about passionate, but— Sharon: They're artists in that way. Kimberly: They're artists in a bigger realm. They're making paintings and sculptures and different things, and jewelry is just a small portion of what their oeuvre is. Whereas an artist jeweler is a jeweler by trade or in the jewelry industry by trade, making one-of-a-kind pieces of jewelry that are in that marketplace. It's almost like a marketplace situation. You've got jewelers and you have artists, but certain jewelers that we call artist jewelers are making one-of-a-kind pieces, usually, or limited pieces for the jewelry market. Does that make sense? Sharon: Yes, it is hard to define. I've talked to a lot of different people about what a passionate collector is and what collecting is. Someday somebody will come up with some definition that's definite. What you're saying makes sense. I understand what you're saying.

It was simply a brilliant move. How China played the oil market today.   Now I can't help but think that it was likely a strategy devised on some trading desk, in the far reaches of some Chinese bureaucracy, which no doubt begins with the title: Ministry of Something or other...

Branding and storytelling are deeply misunderstood today by most entrepreneurs. So, what does it mean to your business and should it be a priority? We had the honor to talk to a branding legend, a guy that helped create Amazon, Yahoo! and created an agency valued at $1 billion - Bernhard Schroeder. More About Bernie (from him) Yesteryear, I was born in Austria. Today, I am the director at the Lavin Entrepreneurship Center and teach entrepreneurship courses at San Diego State University. In February, 2015, my book, Fail Fast or Win Big!, was published for anyone that aspires to be an entrepreneur but needs a road map. And, every now and then, I remake, launch or revitalize a brand.  I was not born to do any of this. I have no destination. Just a crazy journey that as far as I can see, still has miles to go. I worked hard early in my career and became a pretty good marketer. That ultimately led me to my future partners and we built CKS|Partners into the world's first and best integrated marketing agency powerhouse with more than 25 offices and 2,500 employees. I became a brand expert in that endeavor launching amazing brands offline and online like Yahoo! and Amazon. After that, I landed in the San Diego community and turned around four companies in eight years as a Chief Marketing or Operating Officer. That was fun, challenging and ultimately tiring. That's when I came to San Diego State University. By far, the most fun I have ever had is to be on a college campus. The energy, the ideas, the spirit of the students and staff is infectious. In February of 2015, I launched my first book, http://www.amazon.com/Fail-Fast-Win-Big-Start-Up/dp/0814434789 (Fail Fast or Win Big).  My second book, https://www.amazon.com/Simply-Brilliant-Powerful-Techniques-Creativity/dp/0814437192/ref=sr_1_4?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1469728143&sr=1-4&keywords=simply+brilliant (Simply Brilliant) came out in September of 2016. It's about creativity and innovation and how everyone can be more creative. My third book is,https://www.amazon.com/Brands-BullS-Branding-Millennial-Marketers/dp/1976364442/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1508260848&sr=8-1&keywords=schroeder+brands ( Brands and Bulls**t, Excel at the Former, Avoid the Latter.)  A Branding Primer for Millennial Marketers in a Digital Age. The book was released by Tired Coast Publishing in October 2017.

Sue Dent began publishing in 2005 by self-publishing her debut novel Never Ceese, the first in her Thirsting for Blood Series, after working with professional editor Arlene Robinson. In 2006 Dent solicited and secured a traditional publisher. That same year, Never Ceese made the Bram Stoker Preliminary Ballot for Superior Achievement in a First Novel, a legitimate and official accomplishment.  Dent was picked up by another traditional publisher in 2009 who published Forever Richard, the second book in Dent’s Thirsting for Blood Series. It showed up on the 2009 British Fantasy Society’s long-list. In 2010, Dent joined forces with Nicholas Grabowsky of Black Bed Sheet Books. The latter published her stand-alone novel Electric Angel that was reviewed by Maryann Boo of the British Fantasy Society. The initial two-word review was deemed too short to publish; “Simply Brilliant.” The settled on review can be found on the British Fantasy Society's website along with a review of Forever Richard. Dent has since published the third book in her Thirsting for Blood Series Cyn No More under S D Enterprises and is months away from the fourth book Penny for Your Thoughts.

A Simply Brilliant slice of the 1970s that never were...     1. The Splintered Man by Roland Moore When a Spanish scientist kills himself in an explosion at a secret test facility, Counter-Measures are called in to salvage anything they can from the wreckage. But someone else is stalking the scene - and they're determined that whatever is lost will stay lost.    As Rachel is reunited with an old flame, she finds herself drawn into the heart of a mystery. What exactly was Doctor Javier Santos working on? And who exactly is trying to prevent its discovery?   2. The Ship of the Sleepwalkers by Christopher Hatherall   The Counter-Measures team wake on a luxury cruise, with no knowledge of how and when they got onboard. Who has brought them here, and why?   As their investigations deepen, they find themselves in the middle of an international conspiracy, with enemies on both sides. How can they escape when they can’t even trust each other?   3. My Enemy’s Enemy by Robert Khan and Tom Salinsky   Glamorous international arms dealer, Lady Suzanne Clare, has come to town and is offering herself into the hands of Counter-Measures. The price: her own safety. But can their former nemesis ever really be trusted?   With one of their own side seemingly working for the enemy, the race is on to prevent a disaster. But who are they really fighting? And what does Lady Clare really want?   4. Time of the Intelligence by Andy Frankham-Allen A strange voice is interrupting TV broadcasts across the capital, and bear-like creatures are raiding factories, stealing equipment and killing guards. The Great Intelligence and his army of Yeti have returned. And there’s only one team that can stop them.    Familiar with their foe, Sir Toby calls on the help of Edward Travers to defeat the menace. But without the Doctor to help them, can the Intelligence ever be stopped?     Professor Travers, The Yeti & The Great Intelligence © Haisman & Lincoln and used under licence With thanks to Hannah Haisman and Candy Jar   Written By: Roland Moore, Christopher Hatherall, Robert Khan, Tom Salinsky, Andy Frankham-Allen Directed By: Ken Bentley Cast Simon Williams (Group Captain Gilmore), Pamela Salem (Rachel Jensen), Karen Gledhill (Allison Williams), Hugh Ross (Sir Toby Kinsella), Owen Aaronovitch (Doctor Javier Santos), Dan Starkey (Doctor Henry Cording), Beatriz Romilly (Mariana Lopez), Cory English (Ted Hunter), Ewan Bailey (Dimitri Papkin/ Mr Dobson), Caroline Harker (Dr Jayne Smythe), Carolyn Seymour (Lady Suzanne Clare), Laurence Kennedy (Sir August Frazer), Leighton Pugh (Bernard/ Freddie), Lisa Diveney (Doctor Norma Vine), Tim Bentinck (Professor Edward Travers/ The Great Intelligence), Charlie Anson (Reece Goff/ Jacob).

Bill Taylor is co-founder and founding editor of Fast Company, which has won just about every award there is to win in the magazine world since its creation in 1995. Bill has also written three important books on leadership and change. His new book is Simply Brilliant: How Great Organizations Do Ordinary Things in Extraordinary Ways. His previous book, Mavericks at Work, was a New York Times bestseller and was named a “Business Book of the Year” by The Economist and the Financial Times. Stew and Bill dive into Bill’s book Simply Brilliant, which analyzes innovative companies in traditionally slow-moving industries like government or manufacturing. Two such companies discussed by Stew and Bill are Lincoln Electric and Pal’s Sudden Service. They talk about the smart management practices in both companies that foster such great innovation and performance. Trust in the employees is key. Special bonus: As a fellow Springsteen fanatic, Bill gives his take on how The Boss personifies the essential traits of successful managers.

Welcome to episode #535 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Mirum Podcast. Time sometimes forgets the name of those that we should never forget. It may be easy to point to a book or author as a form of inspiration. For me, I happened stumble upon a magical magazine in the early days called, Fast Company. That magazine got my engines going. It helped me to learn, think and imagine a better kind of business world. I still never miss a print issue, and will visit their website daily for more insights. Most know William C. Taylor (known to most as Bill Taylor), as an amazing speaker, journalist and author. Mavericks At Works and Practically Radical were not only bestsellers, but timely books that further pushed the boundaries of how great work can get done. Now, Bill Taylor is back is an awesome and powerful read titled, Simply Brilliant - How Great Organizations Do Ordinary Things in Extraordinary Ways. He doesn't write about Amazon and/or Apple, but has searched out and dug deep into many organizations and industries that you would not suspect in a world where most believe that all innovation and ingenuity is coming from Silicon Valley. Many also don't realize that Taylor's other claim to fame, includes being the co-founder of Fast Company. He was, literally, there as our world of business changed and was bringing it forward to the rest of us. His insights are always welcome and refreshing. Enjoy the conversation...
