About
Jewelry made with joy, purpose, and meaning, from my hands to yours.

Close your eyes and imagine your fingers finding a pebble on the beach. Tumbled by countless waves, it speaks of sun and sea, wind and water, time and tides, ebb and flow. Every time you hold one of my jewels, I want it to feel like that pebble. Round and smooth and rubbed between your fingers until it gleams softly with the burnished look of a well-loved thing and becomes a part of you.
My inspiration is in the things that are all around us: the graceful undulation of a ripple in a pond; the curve of a leaf as it reaches for the sun; the branching silhouette of a dendritic agate; the delicate colors of the first blooms of Spring.
To take the hardness of metal and make it appear soft, I’ve spent hours at the workbench, carving, filing, buffing, and refining the surface until I’ve achieved my signature Cashmere Finish.® The matte gold gathers and disperses the light until it seems like you can feel it glowing through your fingertips.
In a world where we interact through images and connect remotely, I want my jewelry to make you want to reach out to hold it. Sense the gold warming in your hands. Marvel at the beautiful forms and soft colors of the gems and crystals. Experience the intimate luxury of a beautiful object, crafted by hand, designed to last.
Every piece tells your story. That’s why it’s so important its beauty isn’t just skin deep. I use Fairmined and recycled gold and traceable gems from sources I know and trust to make sure my pieces tell a story of respect for the earth and its people too.
I fell in love with the art and craft of jewelry after a long career in book publishing. Finding gems that speak to me and creating designs around them is my joy. The quiet concentration of working with my hands, carving wax and shaping metal gives me purpose. Helping you celebrate special moments with jewelry that carries with it the pleasure of its making, from my hands to yours, gives special meaning to every piece.
