Daniel Macchiarini is one of my favorite jewelers. He handcrafts unique pieces in his studio/gallery on Grant Avenue in San Francisco's North Beach area. Like his father before him, each piece is one-of-a-kind and he adheres to the traditions of maintaining a studio where customers can participate in intellectual conversation while watching the pieces being made. There is much more about Daniel Macchiarini in my latest book, Form & Function, American Modernist Jewelry, 1940 - 1970 . His work was a major part of the exhibit "The Modernist Movement and Beyond: The Works of Peter Macchiarini and Daniel Macchiarini, Earl Pardon and Tod Pardon." Pleae see: http://www.modernsilver.com/Americanmodernistjewelry.htm See also Macchiarini on Macchiarini, one of the first and still one of the best articles from MODERN SILVER magazine, June - July, 2000.
