I started my shop as an outlet to sell my own creations and vintage jewelry while working in the corporate world. I now work on my Etsy shops full time.
Have always been fascinated with jewelry and gems. Especially how they were cut. In 1983 my father-in-law showed me how to cut gemstones. Opal was the first stone that I cut and I was hooked. I started cutting gemstones and setting them into mounting(selling to friends & family); which lead to silversmith work. When I started making jewelry I started attending International Gem shows and purchasing supplies. My experience as a buyer for 2 major department stores in Dallas in the 70s has been very helpful in purchasing supplies. I am now selling supplies in this shop as well as listing some of my own creations.
I no longer ship Internationally.
