Custom-designed jewelry to adorn your outer self, using the attributes of gemstones and colors to enhance your inner self
The choice of a piece of jewelry, for you or as a gift, is always determined by its attractiveness and how it flatters the person wearing it. Of course it should be pretty … but add another step - choose a piece of wearable art that resonates with your inner self and enhances your appearance.
For centuries, people have used gemstones and colors in jewelry and clothing because of the attributes associated with the stone or color such as protection, good luck and prosperity.
It is believed that, in many cultures, our focused thoughts can bring about a desired outcome. The conscious use of gemstones and colors act much like a string tied around your finger - wearing them reminds you to focus. While wearing aventurine or tiger's eye may not bring you a winning lottery ticket, they can help you focus your thoughts on your goal and, by directing positive thoughts to that goal, achieve it.
Metals are sterling silver, nickel-free silver plate or pewter; all are lead-free. A conscious effort is made to use recycled material.
My jewelry is created primarily with gemstones, precious metal, glass and natural materials such as wood or bone. I shape many of my metal components using a hammer and small anvil. Metals are sterling silver, nickel-free silver plate, copper or pewter; all are lead-free. A conscious effort is made to use recycled material as well as made in the U.S.A.
All work is guaranteed. If your piece should break, please return it (with as many pieces as possible) and I will repair, or replace, it free of charge.
