5 out of 5 starsThese earrings are fabulous, beautifully made and the stones are perfect, the picture doesn't do them justice. The delivery was startlingly quick and the packaging befitting to the lovely pieces. Thank you Dixie.

One of pair of earrings. A dear friend brought the lapis from India. The purple iolite seems a perfect complement. -

I was honored to work with a client's beautiful, hand-cut stones to create three pieces, including this OOAK pendant. -

Polishing is an on-going process as it pays to pre-polish many parts as you go. A final multi-step polishing is the end. -

If you request gift wrapping, my DixSterling box will be wrapped in gold paper and tied with glittery siver ribbon.
Finding Joy in Silver and Stone
I always played with art, from crayons through pastels and charcoal, to oils, acrylics and watercolors. Then a flyer for a silver jewelry course caught my eye. Intrigued, I enrolled — and fell in love. Being able to manipulate metal into a shape of my choosing was pure delight. Texturing it was magic. Melting and pouring silver was alchemy. I was hooked.
I opened DixSterling in 2009 and it took awhile to get the hang of etsy. I had a LOT to learn about product photograph, promotion and social media. In May, 2013, I took a deep breath and began blogging. I also joined the Creative Jewellers Guild of British Columbia — a great place to share ideas and techniques with other artisan jewelers <http://www.creativejewellersguild.com/Home_Page.html>.
I still keep on learning and few things give me as much pleasure as sitting at the bench and picking up my torch or a hammer.

About 20 years ago, on impulse, I enrolled in a silversmithing course and fell in love with silver and stones. Everything in my shop springs from my head and hands. I hope one of these pieces will become your signature piece.
