- Chrysoprase and Iolite beads hand wrapped in Sterling Silver wire
 
- Before I started Silver smithing, I was selling my wire wrapped precious stone jewelry at a gallery in Flagstaff and did my first few shows selling on that kind of work. Well, this is one of those pieces. Yes, this one goes way back. Through all of our recent moves I found it and it took me back to those days right before I started smithing. My Mom is always asking me to start wire wrapping again, but my heart is with the fire. This lovely piece feels really good while wearing and is just so lovely. 
Chrysoprase Affirmation: I see myself and others through the lens of the heart's compassion, and I grow in the paths that serve the good of all
Iolite Affirmation:I open myself myself to the path of inner vision and I trust that I will be guided to what I need to see for my highest good.
