About

I am a metalsmith-ing natural history enthusiast making art jewelry in Roger’s Park, a neighborhood on Chicago’s north side.  When I am not chained to my jeweler’s bench I am likely fondling ferns, as I grow a silly number of outdoor plants in-doors.

  1. Just received your heart pendent in the mail. It is stunning. It’s a gift for one of my 2 best friends. She just graduated from nursing school and I didn’t want to get her anything too “nursey”, if you know what I mean. I am so excited to give it! I have to wait until monday.

    • It was a wonderful experience and I think the classes are a great value. The classes are all in Italian, which was sometimes tough bc at that time I didn’t speak any Italian. :o
      Parlano Italiano? If not, you’ll surely pick it up over the course of 3 years! Good luck!
