I love working with vibrant gemstones, hand fabricating unique settings for each one. My design elements, such as prongs, bezels and rivets, are a considered, thoughtful union of metal and stone. As is a trained illustrator and graphic designer I have a keen eye for color and proportion, bringing together a painter?s outrageous sense of color and designer?s devotion to balance to each piece I design and make. Every piece of jewelry is entirely handcrafted in recycled 14K and 18K gold, sterling silver, and individually selected unique gemstones in my Hudson NY studio.
