In this beautifully textured oxidised sterling silver pendant, Romy articulates the challenges of many modern women. Represented by the hamster, the High Priestess of Managing it All is balance in tree posed, holding a lot a keep cup and in the other an open laptop. A baby is strapped to her chest and she is wearing ethically made activewear. The High Priestess of Managing it All sees and acknowledges all women of the world who have a never-ending to-do list. She reminds us that the balance we seek must start with ourselves and what we need to be happy. She offers strength and support in the face of unreasonable demands on her power that can be accessed through the simple incantation of the word, 'No'.

The ancient practice of lost wax casting is very much a line in Romy Mittelman's work. She loves experimenting with the wax's texture and malleability before it is cast into silver or gold. Once transformed into the precious metal, stones can be added creating unique pieces of jewellery.
Romy has explored spiritual and religious iconography in her latest range, which deifies the modern woman elevating the multi-talented and multi-tasking everyday heroines of contemporary society to the realm of the immortals. Ancient jewellery techniques, styles and talismans are the central themes in Romy's work. She has also incorporated unlikely used objects in her jewellery, giving new life and value to once discarded items.
