I am so happy that you have found your way to my page. All jewelry is handmade by myself, in Seattle Washington. I use custom rare-cut gemstones in many of my designs which means limited quantities and a one of a kind purchase. I strive to find the best unique cuts and semi precious stones from both an aesthetic and symbolic perspective. I also do all the photography for the website and occasionally can be seen at a local shows.
I work mostly with sterling silver and 14K gold filled. With the custom requests I can offer jewelry in a solid 14K gold which fluctuates more in price, therefore quotes will be given at the time of purchase.

For Figure eight earringRita cam up with a really good suggestion to enhance the project and was really easy to work with. The shipping had some difficulties, but Rita made it right by re-shipping express and including a bracelet for my troubles.

For One lost earing. The one in the photo.I lost an earring my husband gave me. As a surprise for our anniversary he wanted to do something with the extra earring i still had.He emailed Rita and they discussed the possibilities available to him. On our anniversary he presented me with the most BEAUTIFUL necklace with the earring hanging down as a pendant from the chain. The necklace was made of silver and stones, matching the earring so perfectly, one would never be able to tell my "pendant" was an earring. The necklace is exquisite. As an extra gift Rita also made a pair of earring to go with the necklace that matches exactly. I feel like a queen wearing this pair of jewelery. Her creativity is beyond words. My husband swears he didnt spend a fortune (he states she was extremely reasonable) but i can attest that this gift looks as if he broke the bank! I can give no higher recommendation for the craftsmanship and creativity Rita provided.
