Artist Gabriel J. Shuldiner is trying his hand at jewelry design.  His collection, Fleurs du Mal, brings a new meaning to the color BLACK.

My Fleurs du Mal collection draws direct inspiration from the beautifully dark, decadent, and erotic prose of one of my favorite poets, Charles Baudelaire. I reinterpreted the title he used for his own first volume of poetry, originally published in 1857, for my inaugural Fleurs du Mal collection. My collection has evolved into an ever expanding and ongoing series of work. I consider each one of a kind piece from my Fleurs du Mal collection a sort of poem of its own; one that tells its unique, mysterious, and romantic story from deep within the fragmented and fractured black.

To learn more about the collection and the artist check out his feature in the Spring 2012 issue of AMMO Magazine, here.
