Inheriting literally hundreds and
 hundreds of vintage jewelry pieces was
 the start of what now inspires me to
 create my jewelry. A continuing labor of
 love, which often involves the search of,
 the taking apart, and the rebirth of each
 piece, is the motivating inspiration
 behind my work..My love of native
 American jewelry and sterling silver is
 apparent in all I do, with the added use
 of my favorite, he revered turquoise.
 Keeping it organic and intentionally
 imperfect, you will find an array of
 special vintage pieces and hand-honed
 sterling that distinguishes my rustic but
 elegant style.An accumulation of
 earth-stones, ceramics, old Indian trade
 beads and vintage glass are just a few
 of the beads used and collected from 
 near & far. Loving all things natural,
 you will find uses of leather, cotton,
 silk and sinew in my work.. I am self
 taught and work out of my home studio
 in Southern California. My hope is to
 share these earth treasures with you
 and others, to express peace and
 creativity as you wear them...Enjoy!
