My Gallery
I have had over the years many hobbies
Fivefold Buckle
Created this with some scrap leather and a buckle blank.
Amethyst Pendant
This is a standard brilliant cut resulting in a 11 mm facet. I then created a setting from sterling silver.
Sterling Silver Trinity Knot with Green Agate
This wire wrapped sterling silver wire and added a piece of green agate that I cabbed.
Labradorite Ring
Labradorite in a sterling silver ring setting
Labradorite Pendant
To get the stone to show the blue flash you see here I had to cut it at the right angle using a trim saw.
Tree of Life Pendant
I cabbed a piece of agate and then wrapped with sterling silver wire.
Faceted Apache Tears
I faceted a piece of Apache Tears then create the sterling silver ting.
Citrine Facet Ring
This was faceted with a sterling silver ring in mind.
Acrylic Pendant
I created this from a piece of acrylic some time ago.
Black Opal Tie Tack
This was a soft stone that after cutting the rough in two found a flash of blue. I carefully ground it and polished it resulting in what you see here.
Kilt Belt
Leather kilt belt with silver embellishments and buckle. The buckle is from Ireland.
Leather Sporran
This was made to go with the belt above. This also has silver embellishments and chrome plated chain.
Silver Lace Agate
This is a cabbed piece of silver lace agate set in a sterling silver bookmark finding.
Black Lace Agate
This is a cabbed piece of black lace agate set in a belt buckle. The buckle is designed for a 2" leather belt.
Braided Leather Bracelets
These were quick projects.
Over the Shoulder Quiver
This project took me a bit of time to accomplish but well worth the effort.
Painted From Dream
Painted with oils on 20 x 16 stretched canvas.
Brilliant Round Citrine
This is the first of a pair that I am working on that I thought would work for earrings.
Hall Sofa Table
I built this from cherry wood. It was a hard wood but the wavy grain appealed to me so I tried to capture it in the face and drawer of the table.
