These first two rings were recently designed and presented to their new owner who had fallen in love with the play of color on both of them. I was honored to created these unique pieces. Looking back on this year's work as a whole, I'm happy to see how much my clients enjoy colored gemstones: sapphires, ametrines, tanzanites, blue topaz, aquamarines, and citrine.

Diamonds are classic and famously go with everything. When you wear diamond jewelry, whether you're in jeans, WFH wear, or a date-night ensemble, the elegance of a diamond is effortless. When I create a custom piece for you, your taste and lifestyle are my priority.

My client, an architect, saw ametrine gemstones and fell in love with their unique characteristic: amethyst on one side and citrine on the other, creating a beautiful blend of color regions ranging from purple to yellow, with a touch of orange.

Recently, a customer hired me to sell ruby and diamond rings she was no longer wearing. It just happened to be during the COVID epidemic, when none of my suppliers were open.

I always say that "Diamonds Don't Spoil." If you have diamonds in a piece of jewelry you are no longer enjoying, they are still valuable and can be recreated into jewelry that you will want to wear every day. Reach out to me with any questions.

I received a call from a man who said he was dating a dear friend of mine and wanted to make her a special necklace, and that I had come highly recommended because I could custom design it for her. He told me "I want her to love it," so she was involved in the design process.

Did you ever have a charm bracelet? One that was your own, or one your mother handed down to you? I do, and I find that most women do. These are highly sentimental pieces that tell the story of your life, or your family's life. Yet, unfortunately most of us keep them in a drawer, not to be worn for many years.

I just had the pleasure of working with a client whose favorite time of day is sunrise over the ocean, and she commissioned me to create that feeling in a ring. As a professional organizer, she needs to be able to use her hands all the time. She has a lovely diamond engagement ring that sits high on her finger, which is problematic to wear while she's working. She wanted something she could wear all day with the perfect color scheme.

I was commissioned to create a very special pendant in tribute to the life of an exceptional man who is no longer with us. My client wanted to create something she could wear close to her heart every day, with the logo of his company on one side and his thumbprint on the other.

I recently completed a design project for a young man who wanted to replace a missing treasured pendant that his fiancée no longer had. I had come highly recommended by a dear friend who was sure I’d be able to create this custom design, to specification, in a very short amount of time and at the right price.

Have you ever owned a piece of jewelry that you absolutely loved but couldn't wear? I'm thinking of those of you with family heirlooms that are precious but be heavy, too large or small, or are not comfortable to wear.

A client of mine was interested in a current trend of "rainbow" jewelry - multiple varying colored stones in one piece. In her case she was looking for a ring but couldn't find one with the shape and colors she was seeking. We sat down and discussed what might go in to the ring.

A few months ago I was honored to be asked to speak at NAPO, the National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals.
