All of the pieces here were made by me. Most of the stones I cut myself, a few I purchased. I hope this gallery serves to inspire you and provide examples of what I can do. Creating is often best when it's collaborative so reach out to request a design for a piece of jewelry just for you!

This is sterling silver and rose gold. I was trying to meet something more formal while retaining a handmade feeling. I personally like the color contrast, but this could be done in one color too.

My first cuff bracelet. I made this from a copper serving spoon focusing on the hammered texture. A bit later I wanted to add something more so I took a bit of silver and added the 4 small bands.

A more recent addition, this was the first piece I forged out of pewter. I had previously only cast pewter, but the metal takes well to shaping and texturing. This hammered texture is raw silk.

One of my earlier rings, this is hammered sterling silver and a lavender cubic zirconia that I purchased from my material supplier. I like the simplicity of this design and the very handmade feel it has.

This is sterling silver with a purchased ametrine-amethyst and citrine (both a type of quartz). With this ring I went for a matte kind of finish rather than hammered or polished.

This sterling silver ring is the first piece I ever cast. I carved the ring from wax, pressed it into delft clay, melted the silver and then poured it in. It was fascinating to see.

I made this ring as a set of 4 similar signet rings as gifts for my family. They are cast from pewter and then hand engraved, finally finishing them off with a lot of cleaning and polishing for a refined look.

This is a LARGE ring. While working on a piece for my son, I saw this piece of labradorite and this idea popped into my head. It's big and bold and I love it. It's also a reminder to stay open to inspiration.

I made this ring after finishing class projects during my silver smithing class. It was the first stone ring I made and turned out fairly well. I still love the simplicity of this ring and just letting the stone be.

I learned how to make spinner rings in my silver smithing class. These are popular and very customizable with varying textures and spinners for the middle.

This is the most elegant piece I've attempted and I crafted all parts. My friend, google, then generosity of artists sharing their knowledge, and inspiration from my wife helped me create this piece.

I purchased this sterling silver ring to mount this tsavorite garnet. I like the simplicity of the ring and that it really lets the stone shine. Purchasing part of a piece is a great way to keep costs down.

I made these simple brass stars for my daughter. She told me what she wanted, helped me cut the brass and do a little hammering. There are so many designs that can be done this way!

These feather earrings were for my other daughter. She's into animals and color and has far more fashion sense than me. Fortunately, I learned how to flame paint titanium in my silver smithing class!
