Alex Soldier is inspired by old Russian legends when it comes to his impressive fine jewelry designs. His work mixes colorful gemstones with 18KT gold and platinum. Perhaps one reason this connection to folklore may be why his jewelry is so legendary today, winning him numerous prestigious awards and becoming valuable collectibles:
Soldier's jewelry and objets d'art are sold by upscale jewelers and galleries that attract customers looking for the atypical. "Individuality is the most important feature to my clients," he describes. "They are not looking for jewelry only for fashion's sake; but for the soul, that which stays with them forever, like a favorite work of art."
Appealing to the collector's mentality, Soldier's work, while expressing his identity, is always fresh and new. "Every time I create something I strive to find a new composition or finish of metal, unusual forms, or unique stone settings to create a piece that is beautiful and distinctive, that can be appreciated as a finished work of art. I want my jewelry to be recognized as the original works of a designer like no other, as well as for their own individuality."
