I began crafting handmade jewelry in 2007 to go with my Renaissance costumes for historical reenactment. My skills have vastly improved and my style has evolved over the ensuing years. I have a great appreciation for the Celtic design aesthetic of early Britain, Scotland and Ireland. I enjoy the challenge of re-creating jewels from centuries-old paintings and extant museum pieces, along with creations from my own imagination. I also love and collect vintage costume jewelry. Creating one-of-a-kind custom pieces for my clients is one of the things I love to do most.
