About

Elaine Barker, Marina Del Rey, CA

I love color and love natural gems. Each stone is hand picked and must 'speak' to me. Dichroic gems give me an opportunity to play with multi-colored wires to bring out the complex beauty of dichroics. Natural stones allow me to use silver and gold wire to enhance their natural shapes and colors. Many of my pieces mix silver and gold and can be worn with silver or gold accessories. I enjoy a challenge and love working on special pieces for special people.
