Stones Glass Bones

Stones Glass Bones One of a kind jewelry using tribal, contemporary, and antique beads and artifacts.

I design wearable treasures using tribal, contemporary, and antique beads and artifacts. My handcrafted necklaces, bracelets, and earrings are collected and worn around the world. I make every piece of jewelry myself with natural materials, beads, and findings from every continent. Due to the rarity of the materials, every piece becomes a one of a kind work of art.

Combining natural beauty with modern elegance, this unique piece showcases a harmonious fusion of stunning gem hues, metallic elements, and raw stone, creating a wearable work of art that exudes sophistication and charm.

The piece features a meticulously arranged series of disc-shaped amazonite, rose quartz, and smoky quartz beads. These beads radiate in turquoise and subtle earth tones, establishing a visual continuity and a sense of grounded tranquility.

Contrasting the raw stones, rhodium-plated sterling silver rings with mounted cubic zirconia add texture, shimmer, and a polished sheen to the design, punctuating the necklace with a modern twist without overwhelming the natural beauty of the stones. Enhancing the opulence of the piece, the clasp is rhodium-plated sterling silver with mounted cubic zirconia.

Rock Crystal, Hubei Turquoise, + Brass

Clear quartz (rock crystal), prized Hubei turquoise, and an antique African brass bead from Mali combine to create this striking necklace. This sophisticated blend of natural stones and metalwork creates a powerful statement piece that instills confidence, courage, and protection.

Featuring a thoughtful arrangement of translucent quartz and vibrant turquoise beads, the piece is balanced by an ornate brass centerpiece and is uniquely strung with red and silver wires for added visual interest and durability.

Finished with a hand-forged sterling silver hook and eye clasp, this delicate closure ensures a comfortable and secure fit, allowing the necklace to rest gracefully along the neckline.

The art of balance isn't just in the weight of a necklace or the symmetry of its design. When I'm in my studio, selecting beads for a new piece, I'm constantly weighing more than just precious stones and metals. Each creation requires a delicate balance of color, texture, and proportion – ensuring the final piece sits perfectly and moves naturally with its wearer.

Balance extends beyond my workbench. Today, between dabbling in some new pieces, I'm filming new items for social media, connecting with my team, and finding some rest after helping my friends at the 2025 Tucson Gem and Mineral Show.

Oh, and of course walking Stella, my Pekingese puppy, at least twice a day.

Black, White + Sterling

A blend of monochrome elegance and exquisite craftsmanship–substantial, comfortable, and suitable for any occasion.

Crafted from polished black onyx beads and white glass discs, this design draws the eye with a rhythmic sequence of alternating elements. The glass discs feature diagonal black stripes on a white base, providing striking contrast and complexity, while the sleek black onyx beads enhance the sophisticated aesthetic.

Sterling silver accents, including a hand-forged hook and eye clasp, add functional elegance and durability. Designed to ensure balance and symmetry throughout the piece, "Black, White + Sterling" is a fusion of monochrome elegance and careful arrangement, transforming simple materials into something profoundly beautiful and impactful through linear design.

I started this life in California and I've returned many times. It has always been a place of inspiration and creation for me.

Over the years, I played with so many business ideas and endeavors while I was there - coffee, roses, artifacts, and more. Eventually, I learned that creating wearable art and hand-crafted jewelry is one of the greatest gifts I can share.

A captivating multi-strand necklace that harmoniously blends the raw allure of nature with sophisticated craftsmanship. Meticulously crafted with Peanut Agate beads sourced directly from the Gobi Desert, coupled with the mesmerizing shimmer of Triple-A grade Labradorite.

Each bead is carefully selected for its irregular shape and palette, showcasing hues of rust, orange, and cream that evoke the beauty of the desert landscape, paired with the Labradorite's captivating blue flash. Scattered throughout the design, small metallic or translucent spacer beads provide a striking contrast and complexity.

Secured with a hand-forged Sterling silver hook and eye clasp, "Gobi Desert Dream" is not only a celebration of natural materials but also a reflection on the passage of time and the unique journey each component has undergone.

A striking arrangement of large amber, black, and cream Venetian glass beads form the primary structure, while the smaller antique red-white heart beads, known historically as Hudson's Bay beads, add a touch of warmth.

Their inclusion offers a glimpse into the past, while the Venetian glass beads bring a timeless elegance to the composition. The necklace is completed with a hand-forged brass hook and eye clasp, securing the piece with an understated charm.

This necklace presents a balanced, visually appealing pattern that connects the past and present, making it a sophisticated addition to any jewelry collection. Its clean design and historical resonance invite you to wear a piece of history, captured in a modern form.

After settling in Tucson, I feel the pull of New Mexico's sprawling deserts and Route 66's endless possibilities drawing me back to Tucumcari. This photo at Georgia O'Keeffe's Abiquiú home reminds me that like her, sometimes we need to follow our creative spirit where it leads us.

While my location may change, my passion for creating unique, soul-stirring jewelry remains constant. Here's to embracing life's twists and turns!
