Gregory Pyra Piro's originally started creating art and jewellery in Poland since the early 1970s having experience with galleries showing artisan jewellery and musuems. His experince extended to Sweden in the 1970s, the United States through American fine craft galleries in the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s, and Germany where his work was shown at the Pforzheim Jewllery Museum in the 1970s.
Below are some examples of works created back in the past in the 1970s in Poland and Sweden. Original works included works from silver, amber, and addition of other gemstones such as amethyst, pearls, ammonite, and abalone. Some of his works had made their way to museums where his collections still can be seen in Malbork and Gdansk. Gregory didn't just make jewellery, but also made different forms of work such as cups, mirrors, chalices, etc.
Materials for these works other than just silver and amber, also included ebony wood, glass, shells, pearls, etc.
Gregory's work was always unusually creative and very technically advanced, was usually one of the most unique in Poland, Sweden, and also Europe.
In the '70s Gregory also created jewellery in Sweden. In 1976 he had a show Tidö Slott, in Tidö-Lindö, Sweden where he received a special order for Queen Silvia's and Karl Gustav's the XVI wedding.
From the '80s to '00s, Gregory created jewellery in the United States where many top gift shops and top art and craft galleries carried his work for a number of years, around the entire country. Also from the '80s until the present Gregory painted Still Life and Surrealism. In the US there were hundreds of collectors of his jewellery. Meanwhile since '00s, a few pieces have also made there way around Europe and to Australia with the help of being discovered on the internet.
Unique from sterling silver and solid gold with unusual combinations of faceted gemstones with seaglass, faceted gemstones with amber, or gemstones with pearls, this jewellery is a very unique composition. Originally made by hand tools and soldering it is still made the same way, made from sterling silver sheet metal and silver wire which is cut, hammered, polished and shaped. Each of the bezels are custom made for each of the gemstones. Nothing is cast. The sterling silver base metal and other components are assembled together by soldering, and the addition of the solid 14 karat gold over the sterling silver base is soldered onto the sterling silver base with a torch, which melts in unique intricate forms and patterns.
