Our home studio is a handbuilt solar powered adobe home located near the historic village of Abiquiu (A bee Q), New Mexico. The juniper and chamisa studded hills, and the Chama river valley below, once inspired artist Georgia O’ Keeffe who chose to live and work here. The landscape is an important backdrop in our creative life.

We do all of our own silverwork using traditional fabrication from sheet sterling silver, soldering, hand finishing/polishing, patination and gemstone setting. We also use a bead loom and numerous hand stringing and weaving techniques. When designing we strive to make necklaces that are innovative and wrap or weave in some new and unusual way. Many of our pieces can be worn in multiple ways, inviting our customers into the creative process. We use our own handmade beads, gemstones, pearls, sterling silver, gold and tiny Czech glass seed beads. Our “Bolera Collection” is copyrighted and is a good example of a wraparound style.
