       Materials:  I select components and materials from all over the world:

handcarved and handpainted sustainable woods such as littleleaf and bayong; 

African and Thai handmade terracottas;  specialty glass such as Swarovski crystal, silver-infused, mouthblown, handmade, Pandora, Millefiori, Preciosa druks, double-layered Miyuki, and faceted aurora-borealis;  natural cowries, semiprecious gemstones, cloisonné, enamel, and porcelain.  My sources include Czech Republic, India, Mali, Zaire, Kenya, Japan, France, Italy, China, Thailand, Scandinavia, and U.S.       

   

         Metals include .925 sterling, zinc-freeTibetan silver, pure and alloy copper, gold- and silver-plated brass, and surgical steel.  Colors include silver, gold, copper, bronze, and black.

 

        Earrings: Pierced or Clip-On:  My earring findings are usually leverback-style, for ease and security.  I recommend pierced-look clips for holes that are damaged or simply too low.  Let me know if you prefer fishhooks or clips instead of leverbacks.

  

        All items include a gift bag.

  

          Custom Requests:  Feel free to request specific colors, styles, motifs, components, special-occasion.
