I hunt for jewelry pieces that have been aged by the wearer's touch or speak to their spiritual life.The pieces speak to my need to create from these items to enjoy in a new and different way. Most often I use vintage or antique Victorian pieces, old watch parts, European travel bracelets, vintage tins, war medals, & old European/Asian beads. I also use the process of etching for unique designs, and employ jeweler's resin to permanently encase some designs. In addition, I write a description of each piece and it's origin as well as making my own ear wires. By allowing these treasures to tell their story again, they truly become Timeworn.
