Critics Review

“To page through its contents is to tumble down a rabbit hole of carved gemstones, cloud shapes, and gleaming colored aluminum (with a gorgeous mad genius of flame-red hair as your guide).” - JCK Online“The Sheibani monograph deftly weaves together Sheibani’s personal life and her jewelry, exploring ways in which one feeds the other.” - The Magazine Antiques“At less than 10 inches wide and weighing only about 3.5 pounds, the book is designed to be easily handled. “Making a hefty coffee table book filled with pictures seemed completely uninteresting,” she said. “I wanted a book that you would read and told the story of a real creative journey.”” - New York Times“Sheibani’s pieces are considered highly collectable, a bridge between art, jewellery and design; deeply contemporary and rooted in the moment, just as she intended. She releases a new collection every year or so (she does not follow an exact timeline) with an accompanying coffee-table book to explain the materials, craft and processes.” - Australian Financial Review
