This solitaire was inspired by art deco and old Egyptian motifs. 18K gold and set with a ‘Hearts & Arrows’ cut 1-carat moissanite (the specific proportion variances of this cut versus the standard brilliant make a difference in a very good way).
It turned out pretty much perfect.
See what I mean?

Honeybee sitting on a sprig of rosemary! I love it when the ideas my customers come to me with are things I never would have thought to carve myself. 14K yellow gold.

I love these unusual baroque Tahitian pearls. And of course, carving a little custom one-of-a-kind snake guy to hold it all together is just the thing. 18K & Tahitian pearl.

This amazing blue-ivory giant baroque Tahitian pearl deserved something pretty spectacular. I sat on it for about a year before finally designing & carving this twisting tentacled craziness for it.
I believe it worked out quite well! 18K and Tahitian pearl. This was a one-of-a-kind piece, now residing happily in the UK!

This was a commission for this incredible swirly tanzanite stone. My customer decided she would like to have a portrait of her horse carved on each side. I had never seen an Icelandic horse before (they have CRAZY hair!) and my internet feed is still full of google ads trying to get me to buy an all-inclusive vacation to Reykjavik, stable my horses at a local barn, purchase the newest in riding boots, etc.
Check this stone out! The side stones are natural amber-colored rose-cut diamonds. I took about fifty million photos of this ring; please click through to see them..
