What is a artisan fine jewelry? It is a handcrafted, meaningful piece of artistic, movable jewelry that allows you make a statement at a special event or pause and reflect on precious memories in your life. Whether it is evening jewelry worn for a special occasion or simple jewelry celebrating a milestone, each piece of ladies fine jewelry is its own unique experience.

About the Designer
Many nostalgic memories come to mind when I create art. As a child crafting unique art pieces from reflective glass and mirror found in my Dad’s glazier shop, I enjoyed simply playing with glass fragments and arranging them, not realizing I was developing various design techniques.
Learning different crafts from treasured family members is among my fondest memories too. Creating art felt as natural to me as breathing. It was such a great adventure for a child's active imagination and sentimental soul. It never occurred to me then that someday I’d be exploring and developing more sophisticated grownup designs.
"She absolutely loved it and was so surprised!"

What is so unique about your jewelry design?
This newly developed design showcases a window feature - a unique, see-through, fluid-filled section of the necklace pendant. The window houses a treasured memento, gemstone, or bead that “floats” in the liquid section. The floating “gem” represents a treasured memory in your life that has sentimental value. When the necklace is moved, the item appears to gently sway in a wave-like pattern.
