On Etsy since 2008
  • My laboratory! Enamels.
  • Rolling mill, drill press, polishing machine.
  • This is where I do any chasing, some hammering, and fabrication.
  • Vices, stumps, and stakes for heavy pounding. Oh, yea, and the remote control to the TV!!
  • Overview of the chaos.

Working (Wo)man's Jewelry – Meant to be Worn Every Day

Modern day relics with old and new techniques adding color and shape connecting it to nature and the passing of time. Combining folds and wrinkles by folding and forming metal and rough and smooth textures through multiple layers of enamels and patinas. Including raw diamonds and rubies set into some pieces.
Working (wo)man's jewelry; meant to be worn everyday.

Welcome to my obsession of hammered, enameled, formed, folded, warm organic jewelry!
Why handcrafted? “Mass produced work has its place, but it is missing something essential that is found in handcrafted work. An intimate expression of the spirit of its creator, the heartbeat. It allows for enthusiasm and play of nature, a chance to experiment and make mistakes and grow. Good work proceeding from the whole man, heart, head, and hand, in proper balance...the relationship of truth to beauty -- the seeing eye.” (Bernard Leach The Unknown Craftsman, p.95.)

Returns and exchanges
My jewelry is durable, but stuff happens. Please let me know if you're not happy with your purchase and we will work out a repair, refund, or exchange. I want my jewelry and the transaction to be a good experience. For returns, I must be notified within 3 days of receipt.
Payment
I take payment through Paypal. Payment is expected within 3 days. If you are making payment with an echeck through Paypal, please note that it will take at least 4 business days to clear before shipment.
Shipping
All shipping is USPS First Class unless other arrangements are made. Cost of shipping includes careful packaging, handling, and delivery confirmation.

U.S. SHIPPING
First Class usually takes 2-7 business days. If you need your order faster you can upgrade to Priority for an additional $3.50. Drop me a note at checkout and I will send you a revised invoice.


INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING
Unfortunately, USPS First Class International does not offer insurance. If you want your package insured it will have to ship Priority International and the rate is $17. If you prefer this method, drop me a line at checkout and I will send you a revised invoice. It's very hard to accurately calculate international shipping, especially with multiple items. If I overestimate shipping and handling by more than .50, I will refund the difference.

IF YOU HAVE HAD A CHANGE OF ADDRESS SINCE SIGNING UP FOR PAYPAL, PLEASE UPDATE IT. SHIPPING LABELS ARE DONE THROUGH PAYPAL AND THAT IS THE ADDRESS IT WILL DEFAULT TO.

All orders are packed in a cotton-filled box suitable for gift-giving. In most cases I ship within 1-2 business days.
If your purchase is a gift for someone else, convo me with the address and any note you'd like included.

The buyer is responsible for any customs fees that apply to international orders.
