5 out of 5 starsClearly these folks love what they are doing. This has easily been the best Etsy transaction I have had (and I have had plenty of excellent transactions). You'll see what I mean if you order from them. I highly recommend.

5 out of 5 starsThis cabochon set haunted my memory between orders from the Fraustos. In considering the many different materials they have to work with, this specimen of Turkish agate just wouldn't leave me alone. With such a lasting impression, how could I not add this to my collection of stunning creation from the Fraustos? The design on the cabochons of both the commandingly dramatic bolo tie and the gently curved ring are reminiscent of Jackson Pollock paintings with sharply angled lines interspersed by wildly fluid tangents. When the sun hits these stones, the semi-transparent amber-orange segments glow with abundant warmth while metallic inclusions playfully glisten. Yet another set of divinely crafted accessories from Pat and Sarah that were created and shipped with stunning speed.

5 out of 5 starsI LOVE MY RING. Beautiful Amazonite stone and setting. Picture doesn't do it justice. I also love Sarah. I was eyeing up this ring for a while, but was afraid the size was too small. I sent Sarah a message and within minutes she responded. She resized the ring, steam cleaned it and shipped out the next day. Keep in mind this was at 8pm. Not only did I receive the ring swiftly I also received a complimentary ring sizer and handwritten note from Sarah and Patrick. Best customer service experience ever! Will definitely be buying from then again.

5 out of 5 starsThis bolo tie has become an incredibly versatile component of my (ever growing) collection from the Fraustos. The inverted tear drop shape nests neatly in any collar while the full range of warm hues pairs effortlessly with a myriad of shirt selections. The numerous little plumes of color dance across the surface of the glossy cabochon. Pat and Sarah had the piece shipped out in their unerringly consistent record time. If you have any questions about their work they will always respond with top flight information. Suffice it to say, I never hesitate to recommend the Fraustos' craftsmanship.

5 out of 5 starsWhen I inquired about some pieces in warm tones, I knew I was in trouble as soon as Sarah started sending pictures of possibilities. This Dryhead agate immediately caught my eye and captivated me. The pattern in the bolo cab is incredible with the many layers of swimming swirls. Vibrant pinks transition to a sea of striking red with delicate orange accents. The sharper angles on the ring make for a wonderfully contrasting complimentary companion piece. Both stones are polished to a glossy shine that makes the assorted colors brilliantly stand out.

Patrick at work making a fabulous Kentucky agate sterling silver ring.
In it for the long haul.
Frausto Fabrications was the brainchild of Patrick and Sarah Frausto. Patrick and Sarah were professional educators for over 35 years. Patrick, a foreign language teacher, and Sarah, an art teacher, have always loved creating items of art. It was only natural that they would be drawn to the creative crafts and arts of drawing, painting, woodworking, welding, lapidary, jewelry just to name a few. After several years of making items to sell online and to the public through craft fairs, sales, the husband and wife team work together to inspire products that contain both of their influences. Jewelry and lapidary have carried their small business to what you will find on Etsy. You will find here one-of-a-kind jewelry that is inspired by Sarah's love of color, composition and organization. Pat's influence will be seen in the jewelry and the many complicated hand soldered silver.
The materials are made of the highest quality that Patrick and Sarah can obtain. The stones are set in sterling silver. Sarah has a vast collection of stone glass, porcelain, silver and metal beads. Patrick and Sarah buy their beads from merchants from all over the world. Both cut bulk stones into slabs, then into cabochons (lapidary work), and Patrick does the final silver jewelry smithing.
