Vera

Vera designs and meticulously handcrafts, unique jewellery using silver-smithing tools and techniques. Most of the jewellery, in ItsVera shop, is made using the metal from vintage and antique silverware. Vera rescues this silverware and design new artsy jewellery to be loved and treasured by you.
This silverware was once, well loved family treasures that over time became unused and Vera gives it a new life.
Vera also uses pure copper and sterling silver in some of her jewellery.
Every item in this shop is personally designed, handcrafted and signed by Vera.

Vera also designs and handcrafts a variety of unique knitting/crochet rings to help retain a consistent tension enabling you to knit and crochet with ease and comfort.

A Little History About It's Vera Jewellery:
I have been designing and making jewellery since I was a child using old beads and stove pipe wire. Later, my Dad bought copper wire for me to use. I took my first silver-smithing course several decades ago in Ottawa, Ontario Canada. I love using vintage silverware, recycled metal, sterling silver, clay, and other non-traditional materials.

In 2010, I discovered Etsy and decided it was a great venue to sell my jewellery. Through my Etsy shop, I enjoy conversing with people from all over the world.
On weekends, I enjoy browsing through antique shops , vintage stores, and flea markets looking for old unwanted silver.
However, there never seems to be enough time in a day to create all the things I want to make.

I hope you will take time to browse and enjoy your visit to my 'It's Vera' shop. Please send me a 'message' if you have any questions. I try to check and answer messages regularly. I'd love to hear from you.
Please check my Policies before ordering.

A portion of the proceeds from my shop are donated to support international KIVA entrepreneurs and locally, 100 Women Who Care Hamilton-Wentworth charities.
