Denise wanted to replicate a smiley face pendant that she had stolen back in the 70's…. I brought her dream of replacing something she loved dearly! I fabricated this done round smiley face with shadow box eyes. The eyes have genuine Turquoise cabochon that sit deep into the eyes. I soldered on the bail and added a very nice sterling silver chain. She said her eyes puddled when she saw the picture I took, just can't wait to her from her after she receives it in the mail:)

This was my second time working with Maria for a project I had enlisted her help with some time back. As always, I received the same professionalism, eye for flair, and overall amazing work that I did the last time we worked together. I highly recommend Maria and her wonderful talents for any project!
I am absolutely delighted with the bespoke made pendant that Maria has made for me. She was an efficient designer who took all of my requests into consideration and produced a fantastic piece.
Just received the birthstone pendant necklace Maria made for my wife and it looks amazing. She was very pleasant to work with on this project w/ timely communication to sort through the details. The turnaround for making/delivery was great to...just in time for Christmas w/out much notice. Thanks again Maria, I'm sure my wife is going to love this!
I just received the bracelet I ordered and it is absolutely amazing! Better than I ever imagined! Maria was very professional and communicated with me along the way. She got the project finished and mailed within a few days. Highly recommend!
