Way back in the day, around the 1600's when knight's, peasants, servant's roamed the earth it is said that any of the three were known to "acquire" a silver spoon from castles, their master's and such. They would take it to a craftsmen / blacksmith and have a ring made from it to give to the woman they loved and asked for their hand in marriage so the story goes. For some it led to arrests, (for those who failed to be slick). I'm not sure how I developed this passion for turning old vintage silverware into jewelry but something did inspire me and I'm still doing it and loving it. Each piece has it's own character and actually a story to tell itself. I invite you to see my page and take a look at my work and decide if there's anything here for you, a loved one or a friend.
