About Lea Stein

Lea Stein is a Paris-based artist who began making jewellery in the late 1960s. Together with her husband she developed a unique technique of laminating very thin sheets of cellulose acetate (rhodoid), which were baked and then cut into shape — the secret behind her playful, figurative brooches of animals, characters and graphic forms, now prized by collectors worldwide.
