Take a trip around the world

I am trying to get more pieces up on this site. For now, you can find more of my jewelry at my Etsy store. Click here.

What you will find in these pages is different - very much so. I was a schoolteacher for many years, most of them overseas. That experience gave me the incredible opportunity to collect antique beads and other bits of personal adornment - which I am now using to create unique pieces of wearable art.

I also enjoy playing with metal - mostly recycled copper and brass. I've found there is no end to what can be created, and I'm constantly learning new techniques.

There's no telling what might find its way into these pages.

International Treasures

These pieces are created using bits and pieces of personal adornment that I have collected in the four corners of the globe.

Patinas, patinas, patinas!

My biggest sellers for years have been pieces created with natural patinas in various colors. Take a look at what I have available now.

Recycled metal, handmade beads, and more

This section includes a wide variety of pieces I've created. All copper and brass is recycled. Glass beads and cabochons were made by American artists. There's no telling what you'll find here.
