Turquoise Pendant

Floral Graphic Cuff

freshly launched!

I was given the chance to take advantage of a teacher's summer vacation to create a new line of work and to begin my career as a jeweler. I have been working diligently since the beginning of July to create a body of work.  My work investigated radial patterns and fractals found in nature. Radiating natural patterns turn silver into bold, clean, flowing lines.  I am very excited to be able to share my new collection with you!

Salt Crystals! One of my loves

Helena Lindholm takes an intangible dream-like qualities and transforms them into objects of beauty 

I love her use of the salt crystals, the growth, decay and illusion of grandeur

sense of play, experimentation and freedom

Artist Joanne Huang remembers the days of playing, honoring a mix of materials, observations...

...and fun wearable creations

silver, paper mache, resin, black crystal

Commissioned birthday gift!

fun project for one of my friend's girlfriend; who has a love for elephants and lots of freedom to design without too many boundaries, just a vision...some of my sketches

End result! A sterling silver elephant.

Sterling Silver Charms...the size of a bottle cap

Radial Paths, Nautilus Dissections both created out of sterling silver as gifts for christmas by me this winter.
