MESA VERDE - COLORADO
|
The world of cultured pearls, gemstones and old jades opened up for me when my son and his family moved to China in 1996. When I travel interesting gemstones and unusual pieces come back as souvenirs from Yunnan province in China , the flea markets in Paris , or antique shops on the country roads in Canada . I create unusual jewelry, mainly necklaces, using these wonderful materials.
My unique pieces of jewelry are worn by women in Australia , China , Holland , Finland , Canada , France and England as well as across the United States .
