Owyhee Blue Opal jewelry, heading back toward the landscape that inspired it.
These new Owyhee Basin earrings feature Owyhee Blue Opal set in Argentium® silver—and I’ve been saving their debut for Boise Art Museum’s Art in the Park.
What makes these stones especially fitting for Boise is where they come from. Owyhee Blue Opal is found in the Owyhee region along the Oregon–Idaho border, an area shaped by an ancient volcanic landscape and known for its opal, jasper and agate deposits.
I love the quiet landscape inside this particular pair—the pale blue, smoky white and dark horizon-like banding almost looks like distant water and mountains. That connection to place is exactly what draws me to stones like these.
And next week, they’re coming with me to Boise. I’m excited to be returning for my third year as a selected artist at Boise Art Museum Art in the Park.

Come find the Owyhee Basin earrings—and a whole lot of new work I’ve been making for the fall shows.
Would these stones have caught your eye even before you knew they came from the Owyhee country?
