We make unusual jewelry from silver, copper, glass and other materials. Most of our stock is hand made. We try to reuse and/or recycle metals for the reduction of mining and its impacts to the environment. Phone 240.631.9184

Welcome to our web site, to the left you will see some special pieces we have made and that are available for purchase until we don't have them any more. Click on the links to see more pieces.

We use copper, brass (nuGold), Sterling and fine silver and glass in the form of enamel. We also incorporate recycled materials in the form of aluminum from beverage cans and polymer clay. Some of our pieces include coins from several countries in Central and South America.

An interesting material is the so called "Green Ivory" or Tagua. It comes from a very hard seed of a tree that is only native to countries in the north end of South America.
