I have been designing and making jewelry at my basement workbenches for almost 30 years. All my work is constructed of Sterling Silver, using both traditional and contemporary techniques such as hammer-forging, reticulation, and/or a rolling mill to create a range of textured surfaces on each piece. My designs are typically organic in style, made up of symmetrical, linear forms, and often incorporating semi-precious stones or beach stones from the Maine shoreline. Complete hand-fabrication continues to give me great satisfaction because my jewelry is a unique result of my own design, planning, skill and effort.
