Yes. I get inspired by Soo at times and create pieces like this, altho the mystic topaz piece was a (very) special order for a woman in Nashville.

Thx, Dor'...

i'm a sterling silver gal

do you two create jewelry in sterling silver?

oh and how's the etsy shop coming along?

i fell in love with that site... will buy all my christmas presents there next year....

Gorgeous work. Kudos Soo...I especially enjoy the first piece, as I am neo tribal myself. As a teenager i had a history teacher who was a part time archaeologist . He would take us on digs in native sites. Most of the finds went to the Royal Ontario Museum, but smaller pieces of pottery and arrow heads we could keep....so I made jewllry for my high school sweety....now she has 5-600 year old necklaces...

Dor' : "do you two create jewelry in sterling silver? "

We use sterling components, but rarely use it exclusively. (Normally only earrings) Cost prohibitive, especially now since the cost of precious metals has soared. Are you talking about earrings or bracelet or necklace?

Our beads are from pretty much all over the world. Beads are stone (precious and semi-precious), lampwork (individually handmade by glass artisans), crystal, brass, copper, sterling / gold, etc... the list is extensive. Beads have become more and more popular over the years and the materials have grown along with the interest.

The Etsy shop... it's on the back burner for now... too many other things going on. Whew! But if your interested in anything or would like to see some pics of other stuff, LMK . (btw: I do have a PayPal account that is fast and smooth)

this is my style

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?li ... d=10419029

but they're too big...1" hoops would be better

i like to wear simple silver jewelry. I wear silver rings on all my fingers except the pointer finger and would like to adorn those as well. simple bands with little of no design on them

i like silver cuffs for bracelets...from slender to wide

simple silver chains for necklaces

you get the idea

please tell sooZ, I can send $ by paypal for the bag she's holding for me ... just send me the price and paypal info by pm or email

and if you have anything in silver like I'm describing let me know

if it's too cost prohibitive, i understand
