Bio

My name is Angela and I live in Mantua, Ohio (not far from Cleveland). Years ago, I started thinking about what I wanted to do after I had my children in school. I gave a lot of thought to working with jewels/gemstones, because over the years I have developed quite an interest. I would from time to time sketch out jewelry designs while rocking my little boys to sleep. I also started collecting jewelry (mostly crosses)...

After much prayer, thought, and research, I decided to start a business designing and making sterling-gemstone jewelry. I handcraft my items using top quality materials/gemstones, many of which are AAA Grade. My designs are sold in a very limited number of boutiques and with resellers in locations throughout the USA and abroad (Canada, France, Iceland, Australia, Taiwan, UK, Africa and more).

My gemstone-set-in-sterling (such as pendant) portion of my designs are crafted in very limited amounts by one (and sometimes two) wonderful artisans in India using my original (copyright protected) blueprint and instruction. I am humbled by their talent and honored to have them helping me with my dream. It has been a beautiful experience for me getting to know them personally.. They are dear to me. I am offering a few of my pendant designs alone as Etsy "Commercial-Supply" items!(all have my designer stamp). I have many customers that like to use my pendants to make their own creations - which is fine with me as long as my original portion of the design is respected. :)

Because each piece is handmade, every piece will be slightly different and contain the character of handmade jewelry that can not be reproduced by machine. It is truly a labor of love from beginning to end. Every item is made in limited quantities - many are one of a kind. I hope you find them just plain special!

I describe my jewels as ethnic-medieval with a vintage flare. My collections can be quite eclectic! Many of my pieces are faith inspired; some of them are just fun, but you are likely to find a cross in the piece somewhere. With my faith inspired pieces, I want my customer to have something on their “person” that reminds them to be strong...............to look for God..............and to know He is always near.

Remember, the precious metals and gemstones are the work of His hands...............(and so are you).
