The Collection
The Pearl
$150
I design pieces that are beautiful, but simple. This necklace is lovely and graceful. It is made from gold plated brass, and saltwater pearls. It is 17 inches in length and can be adjusted.
The Black Pearl
$175
This is a simple design with black pearls and gold plated medallions using the Lost Wax Casting method of jewelry making. This is a technique used by sculptors, artisans, and jewelry makers for centuries. If I like the piece that has been cast, a mold can be made, and the pieces duplicated over and over. The necklace is 18.5 inches in length.
The Cleopatra
$175
I like finding ways to make quality, handmade jewelry, affordable. It is time consuming to make wax patterns for my designs which are to be cast in a kiln, but I love it. This necklace might have been worn by Cleopatra. Cast in brass, the medallions are 22.2 mm round and gold plated to avoid tarnishing. Definitely a Statement Piece. It is also reversible. The necklace is 18 inches in length.
The Chainmail Bracelet
$400
This bracelet is a classic European 6 in 1 chainmail pattern. The jump rings are Sterling Silver and 14K Rose Gold Filled. It is elegant and feels silky on the wrist. The bracelet is 7.5 inches in length and 1.2 inches in width. It should be worn as a cuff. Size is important and I will adjust to fit.
The Sea Turtles
$450
As a lover of all things classic, and ancient, I am particularly fond of the Sea Turtle. I crafted this piece using the Lost Wax Casting method. I cast the Mother and Baby Sea Turtle, and then soldered the Mother onto the sterling silver disc. I designed the chain to reflect the Sea Turtles path through the swirling sand. The chain is 17 1/2 inches in length with 3 oz. of sterling silver.
Classic Byzantine Necklace
$800
This graduated Byzantine Necklace is handcrafted using 3 troy ounces of 14K gold filled jump rings. Although the Byzantine pattern is ancient and not extremely complex, it is, of course, time consuming. It is truly a beautiful, classic piece. The highlight being the Green Eyed Panther Clasp. The chain is 19 1/2 inches long and the clasp adds another 1 inch to the total length. Wearing this will not be a disappointment.
