The Egyptian necklace was inspired by ancient jewelry found in King Tutankhamen's
tomb. Other necklaces were inspired by ancient Etruscan, Roman, Greek
and Egyptian gold work, as well as my own imagery incorporating fantasy
and fun. Pieces are made with 22k gold and 18k electrum gold which is
an alloy of 24k and fine silver. Pieces are crafted using the ancient
techniques of repousse and chasing, ancient chain making techniques, including
double and quadruple links, Roman planished chains, wire-wrapping and
lapidary stone cutting. Stones available for custom pieces are emeralds,
sapphires (in all colors), rubies, select turquoise, lapis, moonstones,
Peruvian opals, pearls, tourmalines, cabochoaqua-marines. |
