Davina Romansky Jewelry

Jewelry made with mixed metals

sometimes cause mixed reactions -

both metallurgically and emotionally.

Davina Romansky creates jewelry

by mixing metals, precious gems,

and other items of interest.

Starting with natural shapes, many organic in style,

the combination of metals creates energy

within each piece.

Simple pieces become more layered

and dense. They seem to create more energy.

We always have a positive reaction

when we see it. 

Here is a piece called Silver and Gold Bangle

that includes black diamonds.

This ring is called Cactus Pearl - it's made with

copper, silver, and a pearl.

Our favorite piece is her

Caged Feathers Necklace.

Made with fine and sterling silver wire,

it features an abundance of Peacock Feathers.

We are captivated by her asymmetrical designs

that meander and build upon themselves.

They inspire our own strong, positive reactions

 and we enjoy that aspect of wearing

handcrafted jewelry.

We'd love to know.

Laura McCabe Jewelry

Beadwork by Laura McCabe is passionate.

Her precision handwork captures color,

texture, and elegant design in every piece. 

We feel the passion in every piece

in her collection

and there is a satisfying sense

of symmetry and proportion

in all of the jewelry that

Laura creates.

The contrast of large focal points

mixed with tiny beads lead

the eye around 

to emphasize the shapes

and textures of

each delicate and meticulous

work of art.

Each luscious design strikes a sweet

balance between playfulness,

femininity, sophistication, and elegance.

We are inspired by her

passion, patience, and painstaking

precision.

Enjoy!

Melanie Bilenker Jewelry

Quiet, meditative, serene. 

This is the mood created by

jewelry made by Melanie Bilenker.

Inspired by the Victorian tradition

of jewelry made from the hair of

loved ones, Melanie uses strands of her

own hair set into epoxy resin

to create miniature portraits that

capture ordinary, everyday moments.  

We find her work to be
satisfying on so many levels.

It's the meticulous details

in her line drawings, each made

 with human hair, that we find

astounding.

It's the subject matter
she portrays that we find
enchanting.

And, it's the unusual material
she uses that we find
inspiring.

For example, in this brooch called "Bouquet"
one can almost smell the sweetness
emanating from the flower buds.

Here is a brooch called "Chocolate"

that is detailed and downright delectable.

Here is her adorable brooch called

 "Hemming Pants"

And there are details galore apparent

in a brooch called

"Drawing a Bath"

Yes, we feel a sense of
quietness, meditation, and serenity
when we see her work; we can
only wonder what the process
must be like for the artist
while she is creating each piece.

We are truly inspired by this work.

Gail Crosman Moore Jewelry

Jewelry from Gail Crosman Moore always

delights us. Her handmade jewelry created

from felt and glass beads are often

botanically-inspired

and downright gorgeous.

Combining her handmade glass beads with

painstaking felt and fiber work

result in pieces that are colorful,

texture-filled, and delightful.

Sometimes the glass work takes

center stage while at other times the

fiber work becomes the highlight

of the piece.

 

Each is more beautiful and
multi-dimensional than the last.

Gail's creative talents
are rich and varied.

We look forward to seeing
more of her inspiring work.
