Positron Artifacts

Positron Artifacts Hand made, wire wrap jewelry by River "The positron or antielectron is the antiparticle or the antimatter counterpart of the electron. I had arrived. etc... etc.

The positron has an electric charge of +1 and has the same mass as an electron. When a positron collides with an electron, annihilation occurs, resulting in the production of two or more gamma ray photons." In spring of 2013 I began making wire wrap jewelry. I had some friends who were very into crystals and wire work, and one day when we were hanging out they were doing their thing and I was like

"Well, I have some quarts that I brought back from Joshua Tree. Let me see some of that wire!" I liked the way that first pendant came out, and I've been in love ever since. In the course of one year I went from using upcycled copper wire from electronics to being commissioned to craft my first multi-stoned pendant, in all sterling silver. However, to this day I do not forget that there is appreciation for all values of material, and although I'm not using recycled wire any more, I still make a lot of jewelry from lower cost materials such as copper, all the way up to silver and gold. I want to have something for everyone! In spring of 2014 I started selling my Jewelry under the simple name River Wraps. Easy enough, I am River... River Wraps. But, by the end of 2015 I came to realize that my business name was not very unique. The name River Wraps has many similar businesses, on facebook alone: "Lazy River Wraps", "River Jewelry", "Riverbend Jewelry". River this & River that... Then, when I went to set up a gmail address that used the letters 'riverwraps', and to little surprise it was already taken, that was it! At that point I resolved to come up with something more unique, and while I'm at it, chose a title that isn't limited to just wire wraps. Someday I hope to advance into fabricated metal work and stone cutting I finally settled on the name Positron Jewelry. Wikipedia describes the positron as I have it quoted above. I thought that sounded pretty interesting. Though in no way a physicist, I've always been fascinated by quantum theory. So Positron it was!

2016 and beyond marks a new beginning for what is now Positron Jewelry. I'm always learning and advancing my skill in this journey called life, and happy that I can share my skills with so many people. Thank you for your audience.

I love having my store on wheels! I can walk it down to the beach and watch the waves and sunset, but I don't have to stay there when it gets cold and windy. Just a reminder that I'm still out here people. Gonna survive the slow season, I swear 💪
