Imaginary objects

Pretty in green

It is rare that I get commissioned to make something for someone, but the wife of one of my classmates asked me to make her something in green and silver.
This necklace has Jade, mother of pearl, opalite and two vintage rhinestone pieces, joined together with sterling silver wire.
And this is the beautiful and ever mysterious Heather McDermid wearing one of my doll pieces to a show - she's a musician amongst other things.

Imaginary objects

Some of my newest pieces, inspired by my series "Alchemy" , art Nouveau and the techniques learned online from Stephanie Lee's metalsmithing course. These are baroque and romantic, whimsical and extravagant.
