past work

 
a large, green solitaire turquoise is set in silver on a wide brass ring band.

vega ring - 2018

the vega rings are special, this one features damele turquoise from nevada. this is one of those stones I still think about and only kind of regret parting with. I love making this ring design despite how challenging it can be for me sometimes - the ring band in brass can be finnicky when I am soldering it.

 
a pair of silver and turquoise earrings are lying flat. the turquoise is green and shaped like a half circle. the turquoise is attached to an upside down U shape made of silver.

red shift earrings with stones - 2018

the red shift earrings were a retired earring design from 2015 reimagined. I stopped making these earrings because I honestly found them frustrating to make. my sister asked me to make them again for her but with stones, and these were the result - I ended up flipping the horseshoe shape upside down to accommodate the stones on the top. I was also excited to make another design with hook ear wires, something I don’t do as often as I would like.

 

husk earrings - 2020

these earrings are one of a kind. they feature kingman turquoise from arizona and recycled sterling silver. I often make one of a kind pieces that match a particular collection - these are from the origins release. I love that these stones aren’t a perfect match, but at the same time, they are!

 
a delicate silver box chain has a turquoise pendant hanging from it. the turquoise is a pale green with dark matrix running across it.

deneb necklace - 2017

deneb necklaces are some of my favorites to make - I love choosing the stones and I love making them the star of the piece. this particular one was a favorite, it features new lander turquoise from nevada. I’d say this type of necklace is also peak becca aesthetic. I love a delicate box chain and an interesting stone. this is a definite wear everyday kind of necklace.

 
brass earrings made up with a circle shape connected to an upside down U shape. the circles have turquoise stones set in the middle.

fae earrings - 2021

these sweet little earrings feature turquoise from the turquoise mountain mine in nevada. I love mixing metals - most of this design uses yellow brass, the stones are set with fine silver bezel wire and the components are joined together by sterling silver jump rings.

 
a silver and blue turquoise ring. the ring has two small ring bands connected to each other and the turquoise stone.

arcturus ring - 2015

this ring was one of the first I made when I began setting stones. the delicate double bands bring a nice balance to the larger stones used for this design. this particular ring pictured features bright blue kingman turquoise from nevada.

 
a pair of long, colorful earrings are laid out. circle circles connect to alternate between red and purple beads.

crocus earrings - 2020

during the beginning of the covid 19 shelter in place orders, I began playing with beads again.

when I first started making jewelry I used to use vintage and stone beads paired with brass, but once I taught myself how to solder and work with silver, my work evolved some. but! I missed the color beads add, so these earrings are a sort of return to what I used to do. the hammered silver circles are complimented by vintage carnelian and lavender lucite beads

 
a pair of silver hoops. the hoops are a complete circle that are attached to a circle shaped turquoise cabochon.

turquoise hoops - 2016

every time I make a pair of these, I want to keep them for myself. some of my favorites, like the pair pictured to the left, have featured new lander turquoise from nevada. these earrings have a delicate hoop that moves freely within a small metal tube that’s attached to a round turquoise cabochon.

 

monstera earrings - 2016

I made these earrings because I a.) wanted to get better at sawing and b.) love plants! I sadly stopped making these earrings because I stopped enjoying making them - I was sawing each one out individually without a template.. and because so many others started making monstera earrings, too. I do still like this design - particularly how the ear hooks attach to the metal, so maybe I’ll revisit that again.
