After 40 years of designing jewelry for museums and collecting beads, and owning 3 brick-and-mortar jewelry galleries, I am now offering my treasures to you, my valued online trading partner.
I am particularly enchanted with the Chinese culture in all its glory. I also revel in other world cultures as I experience them through my travels, bringing back little treasures I use in my designs.
My biggest inspiration is Mother Nature and her beauty and abundance of materials such as gemstones and precious metals.
I hope you join me in a journey of discovery and joy. Since the online world is so dependent on good feedback, I would greatly appreciate your feedback if you are totally satisfied with your purchase. If not, let’s try and make things right for you.
