Fair trade sapphires are my favorite stone to work with. Mixing karats/colors of gold is a fun way to jazz things up.

************************************************************************************************
Alchemy is defined as ‘a seemingly magical process of transformation’. That is how I define my work as an artist. I am an alchemist - I transform basic materials into something beautiful. Something magical. My job is a dance between the past and the future. Between my imagination and reality. In the present, I ‘see’ the end piece- and I mold and engrave and coax silver and gold and gemstone into treasure. Each piece is a mini time capsule, a moment of my life transformed into something magical. Each piece is something I am proud of. I consider it an honor that you choose to wear my work- because each piece of jewelry is so much more than a sale to me. It’s a piece of my life, a piece of my heart, a piece of my imagination. -Dawanna

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take for a custom piece to be created?
Made to order pieces are currently taking 2-3 weeks to create.
I do have many ready to ship options available, if you need something quickly. Please click on the link below for a list of them. I add pieces regularly, so please check back in if you don't see exactly what you are looking for:
https://www.etsy.com/shop/peacesofindigo/search?search_query=ready+to+ship&order=date_desc&view_type=list&ref=shop_search&page=1
Are custom fees/duties/sales tax included in the price?
I am not authorized to collect import or customs fees for any country, and they are not included in your purchase price. The official website of your country of residence will assist in estimating any fees that may be due after you take delivery of your package. I cannot falsify documents with incorrect item values or mark orders as gifts, as this is illegal.
If your package is being mailed to a Tennessee address, I am required by state law to collect Tennessee sales tax. Etsy collects and pays sales tax on orders in some other states, as required by law.
Sizing details
Please be certain that your order the correct ring size. Local jewelry stores are a great place to determine your ring size. If that isn't a possibility, please ask me for a ring sizer to use at home. Print out ring sizers are NOT an accurate way of determining your ring size.
I will not be able to change the size once your ring has been created. Due to the amount of detail on my rings, I do not offer resizing services. A jewelry store with a repair shop can resize my rings. There will be a visible seam in most cases.
Care instructions
I use a natural patina to bring out the engraved details on my pieces, and it is not permanent. Patina will wear away gently over time, giving your piece a shinier appearance.
Sunshine polishing cloths will keep your jewelry beautiful. Please send me a message if you'd like to purchase one.
Can you reset my stone? Or melt down my rings and reuse the gold?
Setting gemstones is tricky business. I do reset stones but they must be insured by the customer before I will consider it. Please contact me for details on custom jewelry projects using your stones or gold.
Custom and personalized orders
My customers love the option of adding their own personal messages inside of rings and on my pendants. Many of my silver and gold pieces can be customized with the word(s) of your choice.
I do not offer customization on bronze pieces. Ready to ship pieces are only available as shown in the listing photos.
Please be aware that adding a custom message to any of my jewelry removes the possibility of returning or exchanging that piece.
