At my core is something special. Something different. A passion for jewelry.
It entertained me as a child as i cut and polished turquoise in my parents garage at the age of 5 in Wyoming. I became a bench jeweler @ the age of 8 making squash blossoms, belt buckles, cigarette lighter covers, rings, cuffs, and so much more. In class projects i would make silver jewelry and be accused of claiming someone else's work. Because I was just a kid. When i watched shows in the 70's the only shows that made me dream were historical shows about King Tut's tomb and the jewelry worn by the Pharaoh. I had no real aspirations to be famous, to be rich, only to survive.
It's been 50 years since those very humble beginnings. Over those years i had many different positions. And all of them were in jewelry. I made a life from my LOVE for jewelry. The experiences that came from that LOVE of jewelry made my life a BRILLIANT example of something made from nothing.
I've had the pleasure to work for some incredible companies. Each seeing potential in me. And for me to surpass their thoughts, quotas, and goals. Blessings over the years are far more than I can ever count, and for that, i am exceedingly thankful. CERTAINLY not with MANY hardships and catastrophes constantly knocking at my door. Those who know me, know that I am EXCEPTIONALLY accident prone. Chapter after chapter in my book of truths of long stories of survival. Again and AGAIN! Greater majority of those stories were backlit with jewelry.
My designs are in Silver, Gold, Platinum, Norwegian Oak Tree Resin, and Norwegian Oak. Yes! Actual wood jewelry.
I've never wanted to exclude ANYONE from ever owning something they might cherrish. It doesn't have to be expensive to me meaningful. Nothing is truly free. Effort alone brings value. Value is decided by emotions over markets. And reality over royalties.
I truly TRULY believe in the feeling that life brings. My Passion is truth. Only desire is finding truth in my items.
