My cut off date if ordering from:
October 30: International
November 15: United States
December 5: Canada
Shipping is taking longer due to COVID-19, AND I am now working as a postal clerk part-time, which will increase to full-time hours November through December, so I need time for making with a full schedule. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

It takes approximately one week for shipping to the United States from Canada during regular times and I ship with tracking (on jewelry items) which can be tracked from USPS. It takes 2 to 3 weeks to Europe from Canada. I do not offer tracking unless the customer requests and pays for this service which is 30.00 + depending on item and country.

5 out of 5 starsAbsolutely gorgeous ring! It exceeded my expectations. Janice checked in along the way to let me know the ring was being made and that it was shipped. Definitely a master at her craft. I can’t wait to buy my next piece. Love it!

5 out of 5 starsMy ring far, far exceeded my expectations! I had a tattoo that Janice worked off for the design and her artistic flare and attention to detail made it just gorgeous. Her suggestions enhanced what began as a cool idea into a beautiful piece of jewelry that I can wear with pride. Size and quality were par excellence!

5 out of 5 starsLove, love, love these earrings! I have now purchased my third pair. One due to loss and another as a gift. The seller packages these beautifully, in a nice linen bag. She also includes a small envelope of information on how to care for her artwork. One minor con is that the wires are somewhat easy to bend (I tend to be hard on my earrings due to very thick, long hair), so you may want to purchase a stronger wire (or one that “locks”).

My Journey in Metals
My Background:
I have a background in graphic design and still work in the industry.
My Jewelry Making Story:
I invested in my jewelry studio in 2008, purchasing a water torch and began a journey of finding my aesthetic point of view knowing that I wanted to combine my love of graphic design, pattern and typography into metal jewelry.
My Process:
All of my work is completely fabricated by me from flat sheet, wire and tubing and is produced on a made to order basis. Every piece is a one off so customizations can be done. My designs are created on computer and chemically etched into flat sheet metal. Etching is a technique with origins in printmaking dating back to 15th century Germany. Other texturizing techniques employed are stamping, traditional hand engraving with a graver, roller printing and hammering.
Making Green Jewelry and Social Entrepreneurship:
In 2011, I went to using almost all reclaimed precious metals in my work and switching to a natural pickle. I am an environmentally conscious person, so reducing my footprint happens in the studio where I can. March 2016, I took a class at Mendocino Art Center on Galvanic Etching. This is an alternative to the chemical etch process and uses electricity and battery charger with a solution that less toxic.
In mid 2015, I began, Janice Art Jewelry's "Tree Rings Project", in which a portion of ring sales go to Trees for the Future (trees.org) which plants trees and helps communities.
My Education:
I have attended classes at Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts in San Francisco and Mendocino Art Center in Northern California. In addition, I have also studied jewelry and metal arts at both California State Fullerton and Pasadena City College. I hold a BA in Studio Art from California State University, Fullerton and a diploma in Packaging Design from Humber College, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Where I have Shown:
2013-2015:
• Orange County Creatives, Laguna Beach, California
• La Galeria Gitana, San Fernando, California
• Harriet's General, Culpeper, Virginia
• Mountain Nest Gallery, Black Mountain, North Carolina
2012:
• Manika Jewelry Gallery, San Francisco, California
• Galeria Boca Roja, Mallorca, Spain
Group Shows:
2015 Holiday RAWk Artist Showcase • Orange County, CA
2015 Chocolate and Art Show • Los Angeles, CA
2013 RAW Artist Showcase ENCOMPASS • Orange County, CA
2012 Revere@Manika • Manika Jewelry Gallery, San Francisco, California
Thank you!
