Bonya's, Seville, OH
After a career in manufacturing as a purchasing manager, I began designing and hand crafting chain maille, filigree and gemstne jewelry in 2006.
I am a self taught jeweler and make all my jump rings, hand weave my chain, and hand craft my filigree and findings from .925 Argentium Sterling Silver. My goal is to transfer my dedication to quality and love of art through my work to the wearer.
Most of my inspiration comes from the patterns in the world - whether it's spirals on sea shells, tree branches against the sky or outlines of buildings - patterns take me down the path of "what if".
