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 and it is possible to communicate with her and have that special piece made from scratch. 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.
