MATERIAL/TECHNIQUE:
I first learned jewelry making by my parents and siblings. I carry on my parents multi-color Heshi techniques. Currently my wife and I collaborate using both styles passed down from both of our families. We have won many ribbons with SWAIA and other fine art markets. All stones used are authentic. The stones and shells are natural. All of our jewelry is hand cut, hand ground, hand drilled and hand strung.
