Iridescence
and color is why I love putting these truly original
necklaces together. I choose geometric designs which
are at once primitive yet modern. All of my jewelry
is one-of-a-kind and handmade.
All
my sterling silver and gold vermeil (22K gold overlaid
on sterling silver) beads and toggles are handmade
from Bali or the Hill Tribes of Thailand.
My
Venetian fine glass beads are embedded with fine
silver and 22 K gold foil. There is an endless variety
of color, which comes from this gold and silver
usage, which gives a depth and luminosity to the
colored glass.
My semiprecious stones come from all over the world
and are translucent, somewhat rare and durable,
such as peridot, lapis, Carnelian, turquoise, amethyst,
tourmaline and garnet. Other gems are derived from
plants and animals such as pearl, shell, coral and
amber.
