All Jewelry |
I offer a selection of unique creations, all handmade, including the following:
I work mostly with natural stones. Many of the items pictured below are available in my online store, Shungite Queen.
My fine silver jewelry is created from silver clay (aka “precious metal clay” or PMC) which, after forming and firing, results in a piece that is between 96.9% and 99.9% fine silver (960 or 999 in jeweler-speak). The pieces are hand sculpted, dried, sanded and further refined, then fired in a kiln to about 1,650 degrees F. Once cool, I buff, burnish, and polish them by hand with a variety of tools. As a final step, I treat my silver pieces with a variety of patinas in order to highlight the fine detail. Because these pieces are so high in precious silver, they are softer than sterling silver (sterling is about 92%) so must be handled with care.
