Custom jewelry designs for a gem like you...
The earth's resources are the inspiration for my custom jewelry designs — using gemstones, wire wrapping, copper, sterling silver, recycled and organic materials; many found locally in North Carolina, salvaged copper, Outer Banks sea glass, wood and bone for unique necklaces, earrings and pendants; I also use recycled guitar strings to create sliders that complement the pendants and are surprisingly comfortable — and durable!
Customer feedback
Here's what one customer had to say about my reproduction of earrings she purchased in Rosarita Beach Mexico in the 90's and subsequently lost:
"Thanks again so much, they are my favorite earrings, and I have even gotten compliments on them! I really love them, they are actually even better than the originals.” Claire, Laguna Niguel, California

Why do I use silver-filled wire on my pieces rather than sterling slver? Quality at less cost! See What's the difference?

Note
I make a conscious effort to use recycled materials as often as possible as well as made in the U.S.A. The booth I use at festivals is 80% recycled, salvaged or second-hand material. Beads and materials are purchased locally, where available, in support of our area businesses. Metals used: Lead-free pewter, sterling silver, lead-free/nickel-free silver plate and silver-fill wire, salvaged copper.
