I make my own pieces from a variety of materials. I carve original waxes for rings, pendants, and charms and cast them in Sterling silver and 10 , 14, or 18 karat gold. I buy beads that are new and vintage for original, one-of-a-kind necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. I also use “found objects” for one-of-a-kind pendants to hang from new and vintage chain, many with hand-formed hook and eye closures. I'm always on the lookout for broken jewelry or half-pairs of earrings to repurpose and refurbish.
