I come from a family where jewelry is treasured and passed down. Some of my own favorite jewelry pieces are ones that my Auntie Vilma designed herself. She left them to my mom, and my mom has given a few to me.

Jewelry holds so much meaning. It’s a piece of art specially crafted to fit the human body and accentuate one’s personal style. Jewelry polishes an outfit, fits your mood, reminds you of someone special, or a special occasion. It holds so much meaning in how it is made and where you bought or received it. Jewelry can communicate.

Because I believe jewelry holds meaning, I design each piece to be unique. I often make only one of a design and use rare stones or vintage pieces to create something only you will have. All the parts of my jewelry contain stories: a stone I found in a small boutique in Malaysia or a 1920’s mother of pearl belt buckle I found in Edinburgh. You can read the stories about each piece of jewelry on the following pages. Thank you for visiting and take a look around.
