We use silver, gold, copper, enamel, stone and a variety of perfected jewelry techniques to fabricate our pieces.
Traditional Andean technique. Intricate wrapped wire, needle nosed pliers, hammer, solder, macramé. Sterling silver, copper, and high quality semi precious stones.
I provide a framework to exotic stones using only hand tools and tension to set the piece. I bend silver and gold wire into a simple but elegant shape around the stone to create one-of-a-kind jewelry.
I take joy in using many types of metalsmithing techniques and lapidary arts while creating pieces with metal and stone.

I create one of a kind jewelry by repurposing broken pocket watches from 1860-1930’s, wrist watches, vintage jewelry, old coins/buttons and findings. I use cold connections to attach pieces together.
All pieces are original designs hand sculpted in wax then centrifugally cast using the lost wax method in either 14 ct gold sterling silver or jewelers bronze then antiqued, polished to show detail.
I design my unique Natural Jewelry using Orange peel, Coconut shell, Acai seeds, Wood, and Tagua that is known as the vegetable Ivory. I also incorporate Leather, Cotton cord and Wire.
I hand fabricate my jewelry using traditional metalsmithing techniques such as torch soldering, saw piercing, casting, hollow form construction and hand forging.
I use unique semi-precious cabochons & faceted stones in fabricated sterling & fine silver settings, using traditional methods of sawing, hammering, texturing, fusing, soldering, and stone setting.
