He was a member of San Diego’s Allied Craftsmen group and exhibited his work in numerous national exhibits including “Craftsmanship in a Changing World”, the inaugural exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Crafts in New York in 1956 [now known as the Museum of Arts and Design (MAD)]. According to Marbeth Schon in \u003cem\u003eForm and Function, American Modernist Jewelry, 1940-1970,\u003c\/em\u003e Parker’s designs are “unique statements of subtlety mixed with boldness. The linear elements of his designs almost always curve or circle around his forms creating a feeling of vitality”.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this ring a curved section of silver the same width as the shank is perched atop it and transected by a row of graduated silver balls that give the ring that feeling of vitality; a patina has been applied adjacent to the silver balls to make them stand out.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: Aptos; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;\"\u003eScroll down for more details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lisa Kramer Vintage Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49381325930651,"sku":"LK6413","price":575.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0602\/6444\/8155\/files\/P1080798.jpg?v=1787777963","url":"https:\/\/lisakramervintage.com\/products\/james-parker-silver-ring-with-curved-top","provider":"Lisa Kramer Vintage Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
