New Jewels

I’ve been slaving away in my jewelry studio….with alas no heating in the snow filled surroundings…and have completed some new pieces that have already been sold~and are awaiting more lovelies to be worn by!

This custom pair of 4 gauge plugs feature hand sawed sterling and faceted rose quartz gemstone cherry blossoms with stamens~I’ll definitely be making some more of these!

Also~a ring completed a few days again with a Walt Whitman quote stamped on the back (from his poem, “Song of The Open Road“). The amazing stone is from the Crow Springs Mine near Tonopah, NV, and is completely natural, high grade and extremely sought after. The stone from this ring was cut from the same slab of turquoise as another stone from my collection that I used to make a ring for myself with another Whitman quote~here are the collector’s grade stones side by side (left is my ring, right is ring currently for sale)

ALMOST HERE:

The Romantics line featuring necklaces and rings of quality heirloom stones set in Victorian designs, some with poetic quotes stamped in, all one of a kind couture pieces! Get ready to grab them when they become available!

More Gauged Work….

These were just finished the other day~ a custom order for a lovely repeat customer. Fine and sterling silver open tunnel flower blooms in 0 gauge. These are great subtle beauties that can be made in any size! A delight to create and an awesome order idea…

On the way, ‘The Romantics’ jewelry line, and ‘The Once Forgotten Forever Worn’, a collaboration of myself and artist Tory Novikova, of torynova.com
