Foxtail Chain

This is my homage to the fabulous Foxtail Chain. I fabricate them in 22k gold, 24k gold or platinum. The design is particularly interesting to me because it’s been around for so long. Its history is uncertain as to when they were first made. However, we do know that it dates back as far as the ancient Egyptians, as well as the Greeks and Romans. I feel honored to carry on this noble tradition and offer it as part of my collection.

Each link is hand made and hand woven.

Foxtail and Ankh

Amazon

Amazon is the first of many pieces I have made incorporating my stylized burnt-edge design.  It is a design that has been become one of my signatures, and represents one facet of my evolution as an artist.  I have enjoyed creating many variations on this theme for different clients.

Cleopatra

This is the first burnt-edge piece I made in 18k gold. I loved making this piece because the customer who commissioned it valued the design enough to have it made in gold after seeing it in silver

Grape Lace

I love grapes in many ways…here’s one of them!

Atlantis

This necklace is an elaborate multi-component linked piece, each component meticulously crafted. Its style demonstrates abundance, and it weighs beautifully when work. As is the case with most of my jewelry designs, this piece was designed to be made in gold and/or platinum.

Princess Livia

This princess is a beauty.  Made in 18k gold and pavéed with diamonds, its function is to shorten a double strand of pearls or beads, in order to transform it into a lavish choker.  Women often shorten pearls by tying them in a knot.  I may have invented this more elegant solution, as I have never seen anything like it.  

Columns

...is the second design in my multi linked collection like the Atlantis.

Swirl

The Swirl is a mini version of the Atlantis

Faerie

it’s a faerie angel, an angel of love….. Is it so hard to believe I guess it is, but I’m sure I must have seen one somewhere, because I made this one in her image - in 22k. gold with a platinum grill and a heart in her hand and diamonds on her wings.

Ruby Ribbon

Colorful silk and velvet ribbons were prized by women for centuries; and were a substitute for jewelry among those who could not afford jewels.  Today, people  underestimate the beauty of ribbon, and think nothing of tossing it away.  My parents ran a trimmings store which was filled with glorious quantities and colors of ribbon – rolls and rolls of it on all manner of spools.  The Ruby Ribbon is my homage to the beauty of the simple ribbon.  It is fabricated in 18k gold with 38 oval rubies, alternating with 19 diamonds, and has a hidden clasp.
