MY HISTORY

I collect rough gem material from around the world which I facet into gemstones, creating unique jewelry. I am a self taught facetor.  I gained knowledge by researching and listening to older accomplished gem cutter. After purchasing my own faceting machine, I gained confidence and skill by applying what I learned. 

FACETING

I appreciate the beauty of gemstones and I am fascinated by the science. The crystal structure is the most perfect form of stability in the natural world. I have learned the proper angles.  Every gemstones must be cut at it’s critical angle so when light hits the stone it reflects, refracts and returns to your eye. The end result is a stone, perfectly formed in the earth, and faceted into a pristine, timeless piece of jewelry
